I'm a member of the Japanese Go Association in the 1920's and I'm changing the rules to give white bonus points to offset black's first move advantage. Should I cut ties? (hexbear.net)

By giving white an extra half point, they would win games that would otherwise be tied, giving every* game a clear winner.

offset black's first move advantage

I don' have a go comment from the 1920s or now but I think chess should flip the script and turn the board around so black goes first and white first move advantage disappears.
