Implementing a "Trade User Again" Button

Suggestion Title: Having a button that allows you to trade the same user again
Suggestion Summary: Yes, I do know that mass trading will not be a thing unless the trading system is reworked, but this suggestion is, in my opinion, very different from mass trading.
Essentially, as it stands right now, if you want to trade more than one pokemon to a user, you will have to go from:
*if it is programmed in a way where it remembers the last field you were in, similar to how you are placed in your last visit field when clicking on "My Fields," that is one potential click saved as well. Even without this mini-feature, I think having this button would be effective.
Positive points: Looking from popular rejected suggestions, as well as player complaints, the trading system is on many people's pain points. If you are only trading one pokemon or 1-5 items, it works perfectly fine, but when trading multiple pokemon at once, say trading ready-to-evolve pokemon, it becomes a hassle.
Thus, having this simple button would allow a small, temporary QoL change while we wait for a trading system rework.
Negative points: The button isn't a revolutionary change, but it's purpose that is why I am proposing it as a QoL change. I suppose some may argue that it is too radical since the trading system has remained relatively untouched for quite some time now, but the button isn't going to automate trades. All it is doing is reducing the process by 4-5 clicks, which do start to add up.
Reason For Consideration: In addition to saving clicks, it should also reduce the number of screen loading (I will call them screen changes because I can not think of a better term). Currently, a user experiences 4 screen changes when starting up a new trade
- Set up a new trade
- Enter Name of Recipient
- Choose a Pokemon
- Select Field/party
- Select the pokemon
- Set up the trade (+1 Button if trade is a gift)
- Back to Trades
- Set up Trade
- Click username from recent user (go back to step 3)
Process shown below
- Set up a new trade
- Enter Name of Recipient
- Choose a Pokemon
- Select Field/party
- Select the pokemon
- Set up the trade (+1 Button if trade is a gift)
- Trade User Again (goes back to step 3 or 4 depending on how it is programmed)
- Set up a new trade > Set up a trade
- Choose a pokemon > Field Selection
- Set up the trade > View Trade
- View Trade > Back to Trade
- Set up a new trade > Set up a trade one (1) time at the beginning
- Choose a pokemon > Field Selection one (1) time (If the last field chosen is empty, going one field foward or one field back is easy)
- Set up the trade > View Trade every time
- View Trade > Back to Trade at the very end
OK.
