So everybody fly their pattern 100 ft higher than normal. Big deal.

As long as everyone all max out their Kollsman's window at 3100 in the
same vacinity, even/odd +500 altitude would be just fine. You still
have the same vertical separation. Plus, VFR is see and avoid.
even/odd +500 altitude doesn't really do much separation when someone
flying magnetic course 001 converge with someone flying course magnetic
179, all legally at odd+500 VFR altitude and only 2 degree off from a
head-on.

I can hardly see how it should affect VFR flights.

Well pattern altitudes might be one problem. How about easterly/westerly
odd/even +500 altitudes?
