Center heading above class labels in multi column item in legend

[SybilCoffey]

Can ESRI enhance the Legend Properties so that one item can be split into multiple columns and he heading be centered above all columns?

 Here is the item from the table of contents

The current functionality only allows the header in the line with the other classes in the single item.

Here is an example

I got the result I wanted by deselecting the heading from the Legend properties and inserting text outside of the legend properties, then centering it. All classes start on the same row. This is what we should be able to do from within the legend properties

How is this still not solved in Pro? We can have an item start in a new column, so I would think if an item is split across multiple columns items in that feature class could start in the second position in that column. Seems simple enough.

Upvoting and following this one.

This is still needed.

I agree. In particular, I would like to accomplish what @MicheleH1_DNReply posted in her 2019 comment on this thread. For layers that have classes that span multiple legend columns, I would like the first class in each column to be horizontally aligned with the first class of the first column; in other words, all classes in all columns should be below the layer heading. The reason for this is that sometimes it's unclear that the header over the first column of classes also applies to the additional columns of classes. 

My current workaround is to create a new legend for each such layer, and then use the legend title for the heading, but this is not a perfect solution because it can cause issues in map series where the number of classes might be different on each page. It would be so much better if we just had an option to align classes across columns. Converting to graphics is also a bad idea because we often need to update the data on maps, so we need our legends to remain dynamic.
