Spatial Map Series: Set Minimum Scale

TLDR: Please add a minimum scale in to Spatial Map series.
So I'm trying to make a map series and because of concerns about data sensitivity, must publish the maps at a minimum scale of 1:250,000, although their natural scale using a buffer of 10% and rounding to the nearest 10,000 ranges between 1:130,000 and 1:600,000.
Where I'm running into trouble is making sure it actually gives me both the minimum scale AND the 10% margin.
Using the method that @AubriKinghorn suggested in the first linked post (round to X), I'm having trouble with it rounding down to remove that margin.
For example, this page, using the default of 10% and rounding to the nearest 10,000, should be 1:270K.
However, rounding to the nearest 250K pops it down to 1:250,000 and overwrites the margin.
I know that in the 3.2 release, the behavior was changed to only round up (see first linked post above), but I don't think that actually solves the issue that I'm having here, which is: I really don't care what scale it is, so long as it's at least 1:250,000.
Is it 1:270,000? Great.
1:580,000? Amazing.
1: 240,000? No. Bad.
And that's really as far as I want to think about this. Like, let me set my margin and my rounding, and also set a minimum scale, and as long as it's bigger than that and rounds to the nearest 10K like I asked it to, we're golden.
