And then the GM sets a DC of 18 to do it, because they reckon that it's not something a regular person can easily do, but could still perhaps succeed at with some luck. And our intrepid hero, with their +7 or so Athletics, fails that check half the time. And that's perfectly reasonable by how 5e does such things.
Like I said, the numbers don't work out. It's not even about codifying those stunts into buttons, I don't want that either. But the sheer structure isn't there. There's no verisimilitude to it, because nothing in the game implies you're playing the kind of character who can do those things automatically or whose rolls are worth more than normal and therefore they should get like a DC10 and not fail and fall face-first if it still fails. Those stunts, if bolted onto 5e as it is right now, would be pulled out the arse, pardon my language.
