Negative Modifer

I see there has been many requests made for negative modifiers (as far back as 2016). I want to add another request for this. I dont know why its so hard to program a negative mathematical calculation in the software. I have several variations of my sandwiches and i want to add a 'half size' modifier that would discount a specific percent or dollar value. Yes, i could go in and create 8 more variations, but that just adds clutter, wastes time, and would be unnecessary if you would just allow us to do negative amounts. This is just my use case and i have read many others, if you will not make this possible, at least tell us why. Not addressing your customers when you will not make a change for 5+ years is why people leave to use other services.

I desperately need modifers that work as negatives!  Is there an alternative method that people are using to get around this? We have tried using a discount of a variable dollar amount, but that makes a terrible mess of the receipts as it deducts a small amount from each item on the receipt rather than a single dollar discount on the bottom of the receipt.

Double yes to the part of a discount making a mess of things.  Please fix this Square, why can’t a discount be applied to a specific item instead of the item entire sale.
