Your idea rests on technicals you've yet to dig into. Ideas are a dime a dozen. Best of luck.

Truth is I don't have time to dig in this right now. I thought if the idea was good maybe I could motivate somebody else.

I just hope we can get rid of PoW the way it is soon.

I think you will be waiting a while. PoW isn't going anywhere, even if it were outlawed.
