I did some research and I would like to change my vote. My criterion for perfect rules are elegance, simplicity and consistency. As You know I want unification of area and territory scoring. So here is my proposal. The unification needs that *pass* costs one point. And this is only modification needed. The handicaps are set up in a way that white passes between Black's moves. Ie. he gives one point to the black N-1 times. Please think about it.
For reducing the value of handicap stones under area scoring, white should *get* an extra point for each additional handicap stone, not *lose* a point as you suggest. -John
