Preferred SIM card menu missing when in dual SIM mode (SIM + eSIM) - S23 One UI 5.1 Android 13

On S23 with OneUI 5.1 and Android 13. When using dual SIM mode (physical SIM + eSIM) there is no "preferred SIM card" menu. This is the menu which lets you select which SIM card you prefer to use for voice calls, texts, and/or internet usage.

To whoever from Samsung: Is this a known bug/missing feature? Will it be fixed with the next update?

To everyone: Any known workaround?

Galaxy S23 , but also Galaxy S22 it seems:

Additional info on why this is annoying: I want to use the physical SIM for calls/texts and eSIM for roaming data while abroad. However,

1- If you select the physical SIM for everything, then you cannot use data from the eSIM (it is very common that eSIMs provide you data plans while roaming, but no text/voice plans abroad).

2- If you select the eSIM for everything, then you need to be careful since every time you make a phone call it will use the eSIM by default (in my case the eSIM does not even come with minutes/texts).
