ppl may think this would break the fish

Your proposed structure is better for the fish, in that the standard deviation-to-winrate ratio will increase. Holdem becomes less skill, more luck. Among holdem structures, NL punishes bad players the most, then limit, then your structure.

MM has argued that 2/4 limit holdem structures have the perfect mix of luck and skill, and that other structures tend to die out. Then again, he also said that NL holdem would not be popular b/c it busts fish too quickly, so take his advice for what it is worth.
