When setting a reference scale in a Layout, I want the basemap to honor the reference scale in the corresponding Map view. Not having this utility makes using a basemap for cartography useless because while I'm working in the Map view at a scale other than the reference scale I don't know what features and labeling will be shown at the reference scale because they change when zooming in and out. I'm aware I can use the Vector Tile Style Editor to change the scale and appearance of various basemap elements but that is laborious and not much different than just recreating all the features in the basemap from individual data.
Example of the Layout view with a reference scale of 1:1,267,200 (1" = 20 mi).
Map view at reference scale looks the same:
Map view at 1:316,800 (1" = 5 mi). Symbology honors reference scale, basemap does not:
