I can't be the only one that genuinely wants to see a sci-fi isekai

Yeah, especially because a significant number of isekai involve the protagonist not just going to a fantasy world, but specifically the world of a video game, so it's odd that they haven't at explored other common game genres at the minimum. The closest I can think of to scifi isekai are Dr. Stone, Futurama and parts of TRON, all of which technically fit but don't really feel like what you'd expect from a scifi isekai. Mmmaybe you could say Knights & Magic is one too since it has mecha, but the rest of the world is fantasy themed so personally I wouldn't count it.
