Introductions / Hello, my name is ShuffleLuck

Hello, my name is ShuffleLuck, and I've been sober from Dominion for about 10 minutes.
I'm a researcher at a west coast university in the USA. I mostly just lurk on the forums, but I read quite a bit, so thanks to everyone for all your thoughts! Special thanks to all the simulator folks, for sharing their wisdom.
Obviously, Dominion is a super great game. Is it perfect, though? What changes would you make, for competitive tournaments?
I would increase the kingdom size, from 10 to 12 (or perhaps even 14?). Baring curated sets, I think this is needed to provide more possibilities and combinations for expert players.
The other change I would make for competitive play is to decrease the first player advantage by giving the P1 a negative point at the start of the match. In four player games, it could be -3,-2,-1, or something like that.
What would you do?
