Why does Lichess not have multiple premoves in a row?

I sometimes play ultrabullet. I dont really have the best hands in the world. If this feature was added, maybe it would be easier. :/

Multiple premoves are over the top, when some people already question the existence of premoves.

Chesscom in comparison has no premoves at all. Just multiple fake premoves that still take off 0.1 seconds each.

Premoves are good: saves time for obvious moves like "If he captures my bishop with his bishop, I capture back" stuff. In ultrabullet games, it also makes the game move much more smoother. But if multiple premoves existed, then it would be quite a mess as the game would flash by too quickly for you to even know what happened. In chess.com, fake premoves of 0.1 seconds exist... and personally, I hate it. It's such a throw-off. But hey, that's why I play on lichess.

I think lichess should allow multiple premoves like chesscom it helps a lot especially in a completely winning position with little time remaining. It also feels really cool to premove multiple moves in a row in a capture sequence or mate.

Then there is no difference between lichess and chess.com bullet, variation is good.

Here you have a single premove, but it plays instantly. On chess.com you can stack multiple premoves but each costs 0.1 seconds. Its a matter of taste
