All of the tools are there. You just haven't learned to use them yet.
But as I said before, don't bother with the colored glass filters.
They're neither required nor desirable.

Same here. I have certain expectations about B&W from decades of
film, and what I've seen so far has been a giant leap backwards.
Using Wratten filters gives even entry level film photographers a
vector for creativity, and it's missing here. I like to be able to
darken the sky so as to highlight features of clouds and/or the
horizon. And the deep yellow to red range gives you the opportunity
to reduce haze and increase the depth.
And then there's the matter of vegetation. The variety of green
filters available lets you fine tune the degree of emphasis in
bringing out fresh foliage, oftentimes letting you highlight
veination. For now, those parts of the creativity pallete are gone
or at least greatly diminished.
