Hmm... I suppose one alternative (that remains within this framework; I suppose Urgent Proposals might be a better way to go, although I would prefer a shorter deadline for the Promotor) is using the judicial result that spam scams are no longer effective anyway due to being unclear. But considering that this relaxes a lot of the other rules for distribution, I didn't think mandating a particular form was too harmful.
