I guess we could have such thing as a TA indicator, but this should not substitute the conventional altimeter.
Same as EAS, CAS, IAS... We could have CAS, or even EAS, an indicated speed much closer to EAS, anyway, with some additional computing. I guess that instruments have to meet certification requirements, and these have not changed much, and probably are ok as they are now. The simpler, the better.
