What platform are you running Path of Building on?

Windows

Is your feature request related to a problem?

From what I can tell, the trade feature of Path of Building goes through a long list of mods and generates weights for each mod based on its impact to your current build and the priorities you choose in path of building. Since the poe trade platform limits the number of mods you can use in weighted sum due to db load (understandably), Path of Building picks the top X it thinks will be the most impactful.

https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Keepers/eRGv3XkbUL is an example trade search I created with Path of Building as I was levelling.

Here are the mod filters it generates based on my current build, particularly of note are the numerous resistance mods:

I can replace the 14 different resistance mods here with just 4 pseudo mods,

A similar situation exists with combinations of Strength, Dexterity, and Intelligence mods and pseudo mods "Total to strength", "total to dexterity", "total to intelligence"

I can also replace the explicit and implicit "increased cast speed" mods in the above search with a pseudo "total cast speed"

I also often see things like explicit "+maximum life" and implicit "+maximum life" that could be replaced w/ pseudo "total maximum life". There are mana and es versions of that one as well.

There are a lot of pseudo 'add damage' mods that could replace explicit/implicit combinations and other pseudo mods that might replace some of these.

https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Keepers/veZ248MBiE is a helmet search, works as a decent other example for a search query where it generated 4 weights for Strength, Strength and Dexterity, Strength and Intelligence, and implicit All Attributes, which could all be replaced with pseudo 'total to strength'.

Describe the solution you'd like

I think simply excluding the relevant explicit and implicit mods from whatever list the trade query generator uses and adding the pseudo mods in their place should work as a simple fix? The wording of some of the pseudo mods probably needs to be added to PoB, though some are just the exact same as the implicit and explicit

Describe alternatives you've considered

Well, when making these searches I typically replace it myself manually, but I don't know what other mods PoB might have added to my search if it knew it had more query space for constraints.
