Default option to hide default toolbar and replace with tracks

I have a customized toolbar at the top of the main window with some of the functions that are in the default toolbar that is in the upper left corner of the screen.

I would like to completely remove the default tool bar and have tracks take up the empty space.

Where would the timeline ruler, and region and marker lanes go?

it could be like all others DAWs that i know using minimal space required for timeline and using spare space on the left for some other thing that might be useful, example: modes or tools:
pencil tool, erase tool, range selection tool, preview tool, slice tool kind of things. Or Add track, or find track by name tool. Most important, instead of taking like 20px just take 5px. But not the most important thing ever IMO maybe ruler toolbar and marker toolbar and in future chord toolbar :P could be added which each would be visible if made sense. Example: Marker toolbar could be hidden if no markers in project. Or Region toolbar would be hidden if no Regions in project , etc

All the DAWs have buttons, toolbars, whatever. No one has spacee for tracks there.

Alloallo- in flstudio interface can be managed -the playlist they use there is a seperate window so tracks gets a rack stack-reason also has a fixed track view area which cannot be altered by customizing-but the main difference with them and reaper is 2 are fixed track areas,fl is not.
The other main difference with each programme is the choice of selections and tools that appear in each area are different and the fact that reapers track area seems to be linked to arrange area functions..they are not treated 'seperately' as such it seems-reason is seperated selections for each area
All these programmes could in theory just use overlays with varying opacities..?

I dont know if it just me, And aging. I feel as it is it takes too much space comparing with others. Also second part of my comment is a good/ better alternative too IMO. Not sure if it was clear.

Did you know we can replace this toolbar(edit it) with the other one?
