you would really really regret 17A repeal (you'd probably also regret losing 1 person 1 vote tbh)

by the time they passed 17A people had figured out that by far the thing they most cared about in state legislative elections was who would be sent to the Senate imagine current SCOTUS nomination drama but every two years in multiple states

also far from empowering state governments, 17A ultimately eviscerates them as mere nominating organs for the federal government, crippling their effectiveness for other purposes
