Title Suggestion: Toggle Option for Block Holograms and Item Displays in /settings

Description of suggestion
A while ago, the Survival world got timers (holograms) added to blocks like furnaces and brewing stands along with floating item displays on top showing what's being processed to track crafting progress. It's a cool feature for many players, but for those of us running massive furnace farms or large-scale setups, it creates issues:
Screen clutter: Dozens of holograms spam the view with info we don't need in bulk operations.
Performance hit: Rendering all those holograms and entities tanks FPS locally, especially on lower-end devices.
Item displays: Those floating items (I believe they're armor stands) look nice for small setups, but in a dedicated furnace room? It's overwhelming and adds even more entity lag.
My suggestion: Add a simple toggle in /settings (Like the recently added "Crafted by" setting) to enable/disable block holograms and item displays. Players who love the visuals can keep them on, while farmers can turn them off for a cleaner, smoother experience.
Would be ON by default for new players (so they experience the full visual feedback right away without missing out), with two simple checkboxes: "Show Block Timers (Holograms)" and "Show Block Item Displays

Possible side effects of suggestion
Here come the best part, being optional in /settings, anyone can choose what they preffer, so there are no CONS
Pros: Huge FPS boost in large farms (fewer entities/holograms to render).
Reduces visual clutter; customizable for casual vs. farmer players.
