But we could change each (or every!) one of these in radical ways.

I think the biggest problem for offering something of this kind of postdocs isn't how much it would cost, but *who* would offer it.
What do you see as the payout condition? At least in the tenure-track case it's clear (a decline to tenure). But with a postdoc there's no expectation of tenure.

I don't know - that's another issue with it - but not getting tenure track in X number of years could be a start for consideration. It may be relevant that I'm thinking of Canada, where "didn't get tenure after becoming faculty" is, I think, much less common than in the USA.

I only did postdoc at all in hope that it would lead to a tenure-track position, and eventually tenure; that "experience" is of no real value in getting any other job, and anybody who hired me at that level did so with a claim that it was supposed to help me advance to faculty.
