"I noted that there seems to be a consensus acknowledgment that stalemate-equals-a-win, what you call the revised checkmate rule, would be a major change."

Usually major changes are difficult to get approved, and that is why giving a stalemate an interim score might make sense.

International draughts is a game I really like, but is now very drawish between top grandmasters. There are natural ways of solving this, but generally speaking there is too much opposition, and from the weaker players, not from the grandmasters.
