Hi, I would like to suggest to create a setting to change the login address from /wp-login.php to individual, but not via plugin, but directly in wordpress settings.
Thanks.

Why? It doesn’t really add to the security of your site. This properly belongs in the plugin space.
I have bad experience with plugins. Login address change is more important for website security than login (admin) change.
There should also be a function to disable the login via email, just by username.
You could write a very short plugin: https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-disable-login-with-email-address-feature-in-wordpress/#:~:text=Manually%20Disable%20Login%20with%20Email%20in%20WordPress&text=php%20file%20or%20a%20site%2Dspecific%20plugin.&text=remove_filter(%20’authenticate’%20%2C%20′,either%20username%20or%20email%20address.
The fewer plugins the better. Therefore, some functions should be directly in Worpress.
