Is there any way to use Plus Lighter or Plus Darker blending modes in Illustrator?

Hello community,

 

As the title suggests, I was wondering if it's possible to somehow use (even potentially through scripting) the Plus Lighter and Plus Darker blending modes in Adobe Illustrator. They seem to be available in Figma and other design software, but no trace of them in the Adobe Suite.

Perhaps their results could even be replicated somehow? Curious what your thoughts are on the matter.

Not familiar with those, but from what I can gather they are equivalent to Linear Dodge and Linear Burn, which are available in PS. They are not available in AI.
