You admit: "Overproduction is an iussue"
The ones who do overproduction are, multimilionaryie companymans with hundreds of companies. They sell 99% of their production, causing over production.
The change you proposed hits everyone, the ones WHO HAS NOTHINGT TO DO WITH over production.
The result:
- the ones who causes 99% of the overproduction sells their stuff at higher price
- they get even richer
- overproduction is not affected at all, they don't fight 3x more
- all the other people who just have enough for their own got hit
- they lost on it, spending their money to the rich ones again
- they either stop fighting
- or donate money to the ones causing over production
As a summary, your change makes it easier for the source of problem (over prudicing guys), and in the meanwhile you penalize all the rest, the everyday players without this game would be a deserted place.
This change and the extremely ironic and irritating reasoning makes players upset.
