Rebel T5i micro focus adjustments with magic lantern...

Have anyone tried to micro adjust focus their rebel line ? Supposedly magic lantern ables you  to do that but I can't figure it out, honestly I can't even find that possibility on the menu. Perhaps thats a feature for cameras fabricated with hardware specified for it only. Not sure if thats done automatic somehow since they say "auto". Still even with magic lantern operative I continue getting not perfectly focused photos. So I'm exploring all possibilities here to improve IQ. If anyone have explored that possibility , or even tried Reican FoCal or any other method to improve please share your experience.

Module "dot_tune" not supported for 700D/T5i: https://builds.magiclantern.fm/features.html -> Modules -> dot_tune

Canon decided not to implement MFA into this cam and ML won't change that.

The camera doesn't support it, so I'm told that software cannot do that, period.

Gave up on Rebels sadly due to lack of MFA. Poor choice by Canon in my opinion. Some lenses can be fine and others not..
