Can "Charging Pauses" be applied to only one "Charging Program"?

Is it possible to set up "Charging Pauses" (for A/C charging) so that they apply only to one particular "Charging Program"? For example, I have a Charging Pause set up for 3pm-12am, so that when I'm charging my EQS at home (using my level-2 A/C charger), I use only off-peak electricity. However, when I'm on a road trip, and happen to plug into a level-2 charger, I don't want this same Charging Pause. I can disable the Charging Pause manually, but I'd rather have it set up automatically to apply only when I'm using the "Home" Charging Program, not the "Standard" Charging Program. Is this possible?

Would make sense but it does not seem to be possible. Perhaps the easiest solution would be a home wallbox that can be programmed for charging pauses. No pauses programmed for the car then.

Yes, but in my case I don't think pauses can be programmed into my charger at home. This seems like it would be an easy fix to the Mercedes-Benz UI (car and app): Add a toggle switch for each "Charging Program" asking: "Do Charging Pauses apply to this Charging Program? The default setting for the "Home" Charging Program could be Yes, and the default setting for the other Charging Programs ("Standard" and "Work") could be No.

Just in case someone from Mercedes-Benz is following this forum :-)

They don't.
Best if you send your feedback to Mercedes directly.

This selection of the home program could also be improved. Now it is not automatically selected, you have to confirm the selection from a prompt that disappears quicly. Why not really automatically when arriving home or at least an option to avoid the confirmation. Or is this different for US cars?

Mine is automatically selected once I am home.

Interesting, perhaps a US versus Europe thing then? Difficult to understand why.
