When will factories be able to expand like farms?

I’m tired of having to build a bunch of factories each time to allocate production capacity—take CPUs, for example. The demand for CPUs is huge, and many industries rely on them. A single CPU factory can supply several other industries, which means if you build multiple CPU factories, you have to manually select the one you need every time. I suggest adding a button at the bottom right corner of each factory to build a sub-factory. The sub-factory would completely duplicate the layout of the main factory, and all industry links would still connect to the main factory, while the sub-factory would simply provide additional production capacity.

Honestly I think a better approach would be to add bigger factories to the game so that not so many factories need to be built for CPUs. Some mods already do this such as RealWorld.
