But Conquer is not equivalent to orthodox Chess. Hundreds of millions play the latter, and so far only 1 or 2 play the other. So this amounts to making a variant of a non-played variant. That is in general not useful, unless this change in some way works especially well in combination with the non-played variant, and could remove one of the aspects that discourage people to play it. Adding an unrelated exotic rule just discourages people even more.
