Can we change the default setting for batch updating Activities?
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

When currently batching activities for lots of contacts in one go, the current setting defaults to this - Create one activity with all contacts together

This means we can't go back and update individual activities at a later date if need be.

We'd rather it default to this - Create separate activities for each contact.

See the screenshot of where it is on the Activity page

@Eileenmcnaughton - I think this is still happening, is it not? @JSimmons is this still an issue when updating Activities?

It should be possible in bulk via search kit...

@RLewis I haven't encountered this issue.
