Jack of All Trades Should Be Applied To Initiative

Hello,  I am currently a Bard on roll 20. The Jack of all Trades feature allows you to add half your proficiency modifier to all ability checks. Technically, initiative is a dexterity ability check. Thus, bardic jack of all trades should be applied. It is not applied on Roll 20 automatically. Please put in a patch so that it does this.  (Jeremy Crawford also testified that this should happen in this link

Hi Andrea J., Is Jack of All Trades checked off on your character sheet? I checked and unchecked it on my test bard sheet and the initiative changed as you described.
It should also be applied for Champion Fighters, and there is no option for that.
