Please consider allowing the pilot to set RTH lower than the minimum on the DJI Mavic Air2/ DJI Mini 2.

Warning - Feature for experianced pilots only.

To be used in this example and other related uses:
When returning from a distant flight, the pilot may want to skim the ground after seeing what is out there.
Allow the pilot to change the RTH to 10ft (3m) to accomplish this.
Also, when RTH altitude is set to this new minimum, set an on screen warning "Warning - RTH altitude is set below recommended 100ft (30m)" so the pilot will not forget to change it back.


Reasoning:
I tried to lower my aircraft for this return flight but it continued to raise to RTH height:

The video would have been even more incredible if I could have lowered to 10ft (3m)

You may be able to do this with Drone Hacks application...
