Has anyone thought to add some scaling effects to the more "flavor" or "utility" cantrips so that they get a bit more powerful as you level like the damaging cantrips? For example: Increasing the radius of the light cantrip at 5th, 11th, 17th by 10ft each or Allowing an additional 'simultaneous effect' with druidcraft at 5th, 11th, and 17th (so you could say light 4 candles at once, or 2 candles, a campfire and a swirl of wind) or Increase range of mage hand by 5ft? or Mend an additional break/tear at those levels
Ive had similar thoughts. Some would be fairly easy.
Mending would be an easy increase in volume of what it can mend.
Magehand would be an increase in range and/or weight, being able to lift 20 lbs with it at Lvl 17 would be extremely useful.
Others like Guidance would be pretty difficult. Would you increase the duration, the range so its not long touch, would you be able to target multiple allies be round? Obviously you couldnt increase the amount of dice, otherwise you could potentially give people +16 to checks.

I made one like that once. https://www.dndbeyond.com/spells/22533-control-rigging
