WTH can't I set HA to default to port 80

I have lots of systems in my home and almost every one lets me either change the port it responds to, or set up a redirect.

I would like to have a setting that would redirect port 80 → 8123

Yes I understand there are many other ways around this outside of HA, however it should just be an option.

configuration.yaml

http:
  server_port: 80

This isn’t a redirect. It’s actually setting the HA port to 80.

Thank you for that! I have searched for this previously and never seen this simple solution. With that said I would still really appreciate this being something that could be defined in the networking section.
