I am not really against what you propose, but the total concept should be
thought through. I am really just asking a question about total fairness.

If you follow your train of thought to "total fairness" there is only
one possible conclusion: the ONLY way to be totally fair is to exclude
MGs from the contest because there is, simply, no way to eliminate all
possible inequities. In other words, "total fairness" is best
described as "threat elimination". Recommended reading on this subject
is "Animal Farm" by George Orwell.
