Do you think people would use if I created a tool that generates burn addresses based on a user input?

The user could enter some characters and the tool automatically generates a burn address.
To be frank, it took me some minutes to find an appropriate (online) tool with which I could create my above example of a burner address. I used an interactive portion on my favourite Bitcoin educational website https://learnmeabitcoin.com. The creation itself only took seconds as for a burner address there's no need to find the private key that gives you a matching public address.

I don't know why people would want to use burner addresses as I don't like the deliberate act of immobalization of coins. Funding burner addresses freezes UTXOs forever which also bloats the UTXO set. This bloat carries over into the open-end future for every Bitcoin node operator.

There is a tool for that https://www.bitaddress.org
I looked there on my quest to find an online tool. Are you sure? Show me! We're not talking about brainwallets.
