Question Looking for a solution to missing NFC quick toggle - Sony Xperia 1 III

Hi, I recently got myself a new phone (without enough prior research, apparently) and noticed, that the option most used by me - NFC on/off quick setting - is completely gone, unless I root or flash my device, which I'd rather avoid.
It's an XQ-BC52, Android 12 (61.1.A.11.36 release-keys).
So, questions:
- what solutions do I have without rooting the phone (like a shortcut directly to NFC settings, instead of having to tap 5-6 times to get there)?
- are there other "stock" ROMs for this phone, that have the NFC quick setting available?
- are there any reliable custom ROMS I could turn to (looked into LineageOS, but found no official release for my model)?
Every answer is very welcome!

You could try a shortcut maker....I personally never turn NFC off so it didn't bother me that it wasn't there

Any tips on how to set NFC Settings in Shortcut Maker, or at least how to get the Action, Package and Class names for it?

Ok, here's what I found in the app:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And the "Nfc settings" brings me to Connectivity Settings ("Ustawienia połączeń"):
And the option I want to reach - NFC Communication ("Komunikacja NFC") - is at the bottom of the screenshot:
So how do I modify those shortcut settings, so it points right there, one step deeper?

I was messing around with one as well just to see...but I couldn't figure it out myself...I would try the other 2 options of "NFC payment settings" and "NFCsharing settings" and see if they lead to the goal you seek.
