I'm not disagreeing with any of that. Indeed, it was something mooted in the mid-noughties whilst Farnborough LARS was being brought on line. As ever, it came down to cost and who was going to pay. In typical GA fashion (from back then) many of us threw our arms in the air and said we weren't going to pay for anything, stomping our feet like a frustrated two-year old. I was there and saw it - it was embarrassing for GA.
Perhaps our attitudes have moved on a bit (we're certainly more receptive to electronic conspicuity) but again it would come down to paying for a service. The sub-2T brigade is actually quite lucky right now in getting a (disjointed) air traffic service for free. Why should we get something for free purely by virtue of being lightweights?
