This along with other annoyances with Toyota I knew about prior to buying last December. Just took a deep breath and dove in.
I have a Limited so no "S" mode. Some of these features I didn't research enough on. Thinking I should have gotten a TRD something. Looked at Tacoma but didn't want stickers all over my truck. Didn't realize the 4R TRD didn't have stickers. Oh well. Is what it is, right?
There's a thread somewhere like "For those that complain about 5Speed Trany" IMO the OP's/my complaint could be mitigated with a 6speed or better yet an 8speed Transmission. That said, I don't know all the ins and outs of transmission design vs application. In other words, for those that like off-roading, is there a drawback to more gears? IDK
I quit driving 45K/year Jan 2020. Back then it was in an F150 and cruise control was nearly always on. My solution with this truck is keep Cruise OFF. Its not a 100% solution for the OP but much more tolerable. To me.
Wish there the heavy braking didn't happen when someone changes lanes in front of me while in cruise. Where's that setting? Just kidding and not wanting to derail the topic.
