Request: Streamline Need/Greed/Pass to Loot/Pass

Hello!
I would like to request that the Need/Greed/Pass system get streamlined to "Loot/Pass."
Long ago, I set a hotkey for "Need" so I could roll that quickly with the press of a button, and I chose "Need" over "Greed" because one routinely encountered constant "Need" rollers to the point that it seemed absolutely everyone rolled "Need." And, frankly, rolling "Greed" strikes me as distasteful, even knowing it is not meant to have such grandiose implications as the deadly sin.
Not too long ago, I encountered someone who started fussing in team chat about how "Greed is a perfectly viable selection" because they didn't like others rolling need. This resulted in a discussion about the absolute pointlessness of having three options, because no one "needs" the loot that drops from mobs in STO, it's never an epic, one-in-a-thousand boss loot drop that is specific to their class or something, they either want it or don't, whether for vendor fodder or salvage.
So, I would like to request the simplification of the loot roll system to avoid any ethical qualms people have over rolling "Need" when they know they don't "need" anything in an MMO, or moral qualms over rolling "Greed" because it's a deadly sin. etc.
Thank you for your consideration.
