It is quite feasible to let mathematicians (and computers) do the work. The result would be provably fair. NATURALLY, no politician can stand that idea. Note that “fair” isn’t much like “traditional”, so it would be reasonable to let an impartial group select the best from a several different generated options. And no politician could stand that idea. So what we have, mostly, is a purely political process that, in this environment, will also be purely partisan. Winners and losers, which is the American way. Too bad. Winners and other winners is better.
