at my workplace we have both Vray and Corona and one of the features that I would love is affect diffuse checkbox in corona lights

whats the use ?

my work is mostly related to products and many times I want to reflect a specific reflective part of the product, in Vray I simply put a light directed towards the part I want to reflect and turn off "affect diffuse" along with visible in renders and occlude other lights and so what happens is only the reflection channel is affected which means the parts around the glossy area won't have blown pixels and I can perfectly adjust the light without worrying about it destroying my lighting affecting other parts

what happens on the other hand in corona is I have to play with different light positions, different IES profiles for sometimes hours and it's still not quite close to what creative freedom I get in Vray

many of you might suggest to change the angle of camera or the product so that It can naturally highlight without faking it but most of the times I am blocked from changing those aspects hence why I am making this request

Thank You
