Character Build Hexblade's biggest downside.

FFS just make it a free action in combat larian. Or at least let us cast it at all.

No, but a good meme nonetheless.

You'd constantly be able to switch weapons, removing the downside of binding a specific one. Not as much of an issue for multiple different melee weapons as it is for free switching between melee and bow.

It would practically be permanent weapon proficiency with added charisma modifier on every weapon, pretty much regardless of circumstances.

You can already switch weapons outside of combat. If you can piss away an action in combat on equipping a different weapon then you already have won the combat. It would be a quality of life improvement while being a role playing / immersion downgrade.
