Mouse sensitivity per monitor

Hello,

Is there any way to setup mouse sensitivity per monitor basis?
I'm using two monitors:

$ xrandr | grep " connected"
HDMI-0 connected 2560x1080+2560+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 673mm x 284mm
DP-4 connected primary 2560x1440+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 596mm x 335mm

And they both have different pixel density.
Because of that I've noticed that my mouse pointer speed is different on my secondary monitor.
It has slightly lower pixel density which causes mouse pointer to move faster on it.
It's very noticeable and really throws me off with me trying to precisely point at something.

To be clear, I'm not interested in having fractional scaling on one monitor to match the other.
I can do:

$ xrandr --output HDMI-0 --scale 1.13x1.13

But everything looks blurry.
It seems like an obvious thing to have mouse sensitivity scaled to match pixel density.

I'm using GNOME 41, X11, and Nvidia propertiary drivers (495)
Thanks for help.
