Set assignee using custom field

My understanding is that you cannot currently assign a task using a custom "person” field. Is this correct?

But it seems like you have the option to use that custom field to assign OTHER custom fields. Surely there’s a way to have the “assign” feature use custom field data. My current workaround is using AI to handle this, but it’s so unnecessary. “Custom field” could be a dropdown option under the “Set assignee” options, like it is for “Set [custom field person] to”.
