Attempts to introduce scoring changes for other areas of the world was
included as a question topic in the 2013 CQ WW participant survey. Review
the voting results and the comments in the pdf file at

The first level challenge is to define the problem (or even if there is
one). Then to define what the scoring should optimize. Only then can you
rationally discuss the options.
Maintaining the status quo is strong with reflector readers.
