I see your point. I just think if Nintendo saw the problem with the same perspective, they would implement such a system similar to what you had mentioned. Yes, it would change the meta completely, and honestly, well known competitive players may not even be that good anymore in the new format, but what matters is it puts players on an even ground.
With that though, the community really needs to come together, and let Nintendo know "this is what we want!" The thing is though, I don't see this being such a huge issue in the community. I want to say this; I had always fought my competitors with the mentality that we are both equals, and that we are playing to have fun. I understand now that it may not be the case on the other side.
I do agree with what you are saying though. Rules and regulations are implemented for the purpose of everyone having a fair chance. Especially with scholarship prizes, people who work legitimately hard deserves a fair shot at their future. I just don't know if that part of the community is large enough to come together and make it happen (Of course, I would gladly side against genning for official tournaments).
