Is beetroot still useless with these buffs?

On the suggestions sub I suggested the following buffs to beetroot:

Same crop/seed drop rates as wheat.

Craft soup with 3 beetroot in your inventory without changing hunger/saturation

Add roasted beetroot with same stats as bread.

If all 3 of these were added would it be enough to take beetroot out of the useless category?

Would you consider growing them if all 3 of these were added?

Or have the years of uselessness prejudiced you enough against them that even making each one a notch apple couldn't convince you to grow them :D
