It seems as though one complaint that some people have (especially in comparing it to Puerto Rico) is that you can't just go for one strategy, you must go for at least a little bit of everything.
First, to avoid the negative points.
And second, because there is a cap on points for everything.

Has anyone tried doing away with the negative points for not having something and just continuing scaling up the points for everything?
ie
0 points for 0 of anything (or 1 plowed field)
and then
5 points for 10 grain or sheep, 6 points for 12 grain or sheep, etc...
5 points for 9 boars, 6 points for 11 boars, etc...
5 points for 8 cattle, 6 points for 10 cattle, etc...
5 points for 6 fields, 6 points for 7 fields, etc...
5 points for 5 pastures (the max)
5 points for 5 veggies, 6 points for 6 veggies, etc...


I have only played the game a few times (and mostly solo), so I haven't tried it. But I was wondering if some of the more experienced players had thought of it/tried it or what people think of the idea.

Obviously it would change the feel of the game. With 1 or 2 players I don't think it would work too well, but how about with 3 to 5?
Would it break stuff or make it less fun?
