Chess is an art, it only has meaning because humans give it meaning, and has a human audience. Keep the win-tie-draw scheme but apply bonus points in top-tier tournaments for “beautiful” wins, as determined by a large-ish group of Master and above players in near-real-time. Like style points in Olympic sports. The Internet makes such a scheme workable, and the chess community gets more entertaining games to watch as a result.
