If it's ok to make suggestions, it's also ok to express your opinion of

I have all the FM radios I need, so I won't use the feature.
That doesn't mean that I don't feel that anyone doesn't have a perfect
right to suggest any feature they'd like to see.

I would like to have a radio in the bookport because then, everything
would
be all in one saving people having to get separate things.
