RD-0105 Verniers should be separate parts instead of switching between models

I believe RD-0105 verniers should be separate instead of fixed to the engine, that way there's no need to switch between "Compact" and "Wide" vernier options.

I do not know if this suggestion is logical, I don't know if this issue makes sense to be posted, but if anyone could give feedback to this it'd be nice

They really shouldn't be separate engines. They run off the turbopump of the RD-0105. What is your reasoning for it?

Yes, separate verniers cause many balance problems, especially pure gas generator verniers like the RD-0105, which cannot run at all if the main engine is not running. Until this is resolved, I will be avoiding adding separate vernier parts if possible.
