Not sure if it's already been said given the near 500+ pages in this thread, but we need more bedmates!!! It feels down right illegal that I can't ask Cait to snuggle up, Atugia can sleep with you but you have to go out of your way to get her in bed, and we just got a huge Agnimitra content update, yet I can't even ask her to keep me warm in these cold northern nights. Also letting us take party members other than Ryn to bed at the wayfort would be nice. This could be fleshed out further by updating any bedmate scenes with flavor text to reflect the current relationship status bewtween you and said bedmate (quest wise, general progress, married or not)

Omg can't believe I didn't think of this until now!! True Dual Weapons!!! A perk that would allow a PC to wield a two-handed weapon in either hand or two non-light weapon weapons and have them be treated the same a PC wielding two light one-handed weapons & simultaneously. Let's just call it Giant's Strength after brint's ability that kinda works the same Ex: A PC Wielding the Captain's Greatsword(2H) and Galon's Griefmaker(2H) or the Ashelander(1H/nL) and The Dawnsword(1H/L) being able to use the Dual Blitz and Steady Strike in the same combat encounter. Essentially just making it so that perk allows the offland slot to treated as a primary slot and lets us use two non-light weapons at once, one or two-handed. It'd make sense to make it a lvl 9 Warrior exclusive perk lore wise, but yeah we need this fr.

Unfortunately many people have asked for monkey grip as a perk, which was always met with an emphatic "No."

Your guess is as good as mine, but the most likely answer is just balancing reasons.

2handed weapons are balanced with the assumption they will occupy both hand slots (even if I feel like they lack a bit of oomph compaired to dual-wielding)
Also, it may or may not be a pain to code.

..........that's a fair assumption to make, but I can't see that as a strong enough argument that could be made for this case. In my vanilla experience playing through CoCII, outside of save editing you can't ever really be "overpowered". I can see how strong the perk could potentially make some late game warrior builds by letting them use stats from 2 two-handed/non-light weapons, but even then the enemies we'll be facing by the time we can even use this 9th lvl perk will more than be able to handle said stat combination. Many of the better 2H unique weapons have a negative stat to counter how effective they perform, the stat tank from two weapons could in itself prevent any build from being too strong, it'd either require a attribute or equipment change to compensate preventing any one stat from ever being too too high.

If need be, I will gladly code it myself I'd be more than happy to. But I'm not just talking about two-handed weapons here. Like @Shrike675 mentioned, warriors being able to monkey grip would let them use any weapon in either weapon hand slot, so you do two shields, two quarterstaffs, two non-light one-handers.

Honestly the perk is more for character headcannons and less how effective am I in combat. What with lvl 7 granting 2 mutually exclusive options for perks - for warriors, Tough Skin & Cleaving Strikes offering PCs a defensive or offensive path of play - I figure lvl 9 will more of the same, just another offensive or defensive perk to futher specialize your pc's type of fighting style. So if Giant's strength is the offensive side, the defensive side of that could be a perk that grants warriors passive health regen once drops below 50% and +15 armor, +15 power & +15 evasion so long as the health is below 50%, call it Battle Junkie.
