PS-Bill, I think your idea has merit, but would make sail inventory management more difficult. Using me as an example-I hope to be able to "stretch" (pun intended) my 3/4 to last through next season by using the new 1/2 oz (if allowed) when possible. But if the NA organizing body decides to restrict the sail inventory to just the 3/4, I would be stuck using a four year old chute for all racing at the NA's, and would then have prioritized my sail purchasing (without realizing it) for PHRF.
