How on earth are people using LUTs with a long video and multiple clips?

I'm only editing 10-20min videos, but I sometimes have quite a few clips. To edit each clip I have to adjust each one seprately for Color Grading (LUTs, I don't just apply 100%, I typically make the strength 30-50%), Same thing with Wind Removal btw.

That is such a tedious way to edit multiple clips and takes forever. There really needs a APPLY TO ALL CLIPS on this track option for both the strength of LUTs and Wind Removal.

I can't imagine people doing editing like this with very long videos with a ton of clips. wow....

PD21 is really lacking for good process automation for editing. I use AutoHotkey, it's rather easy to "learn" a PD21 key/mouse sequence to apply settings to a clip and then simply have that learned loop repeat XX number of times. PD Hotkeys help with the "learn" cycle too for advancing to next clip and such. At times I need to move clips to a new track to loop through but that's usually a rather trivial task.

It would be really nice to have some true editing features added to PD but it appears CL is always too busy with providing a new sticker update. Suggesting features appears to go nowhere, or too slow to be relevant, pace of years if ever!
