Caesarpunk? Circensespunk? Idk what to call it, but I want cyberpunk-but-ancient-Rome to exist as a genre

I feel like the modern version would be putting out the fire no matter what because it might spread to surrounding properties and then charging you for it anyway and putting a lien on the property if you can't pay.
