The root of this scheme: a current roller wants to screw the chances of future rollers to increase their own

... except, as I keep repeating, it won't work. Player agreements require consensus, and the staff only enforces them as long as there is consensus.
As soon as people realize they're getting screwed, they're just going to go back to the click fest. If it's just one guy, the GMs might step in, but when it's 5? 10? 20?
If I actually thought this idea had any chance whatsoever, I'd be worried that it would lead to disrupting the existing agreement (which was
painful to get established) ... but again it has zero chance.

I don't think it's necessarily true that half the people will be losers in the new system. Who do you think would end up being losers?

This is not complicated math: every goblin I get is a goblin you don't get, and again there are no (more) new goblins entering the system. No matter how you shift the system, there will by definition be losers: everyone who doesn't get the goblin.
The beauty of the current system is that everyone who participates is equally a loser
