Ability to disable "alarm vibration" and haptic feedback separately

In Settings>System>Sounds and Feedback, there are two items for setting the vibrations:

1.) "Vibration": always, only in silent mode, only when sound is on, never 2.) "Touchscreen Virbation": on, off I would expect 1. to regard vibration for calls, messages, alarm, etc., maybe low battery and 2.) to regulate haptic feedback.

BUT: Putting the phone in silent mode and setting "Vibration" to "only when sound is on", that also disables haptic feedback, even though "Touchscreen Vibration" is set "on".

So that is either a bug, or the settings 1.) and 2.) are not meant to operate like I would expect. In any case, it should be possible to toggle vibration and haptic feedback separately

When I put the phone into silent mode, I usually want vibration (signalling calls, messages, alarm etc.) also turned off, but that's not related to what I want the phone to do when I'm operating it.

[Bug] Ability to disable "alarm vibration" and haptic feedback separately

In Settings>System>Sounds and Feedback, there are two items for setting the vibrations:

1.)

  1. "Vibration": always, only always/only in silent mode, only mode/only when sound is on, never 2.) on/never

  2. "Touchscreen Virbation": on, off on/off


I would expect 1. to regard vibration for calls, messages, alarm, etc., maybe low battery and 2.) battery, and 2. to regulate haptic feedback.
