If you want someone significantly more tsun than this, it becomes a big impediment to romantic progress. That is a major reason why tsunderes were everywhere in 00s hetslop, it explicitly tried not to arrive at actual romance before the last chapter because most works were fighting shounen with a side of romance or haremshit or both, and tsunderes are an easy way to get you there without having to plan out romantic development -you can just one day decide for her to drop her act, they kiss and the curtains fall. On the way there she can hit the protagonist for "comedy" every time he touches another girl and voila, you are now a 00s LN writer.

Modern yuri falls over itself to prove as early as possible that it is going to be actual yuri and that is in direct conflict with the reasons writers of the past chose tsunderes for. Even het is written very differently today (reiwa energy) so the necessity for tsunderes simply disappeared. I agree that it is a bit sad.
Your best chances to still see intense tsunderes are in harems, a genre that your can't take the 00s out of because you can't take it out of the 00s either.
