I'm not sure how this is any different from before. Each person gets one vote. And if the district has a different number, that doesn't mean the voter is cut out of the races. The headline doesn't make sense to me at all.

I’m ready for a modern form of representation that isn’t constrained by how many people an old building can hold. I wish small groups could have a representative with a proportionally small fraction of voting power.

Gerrymandering is a deal with the devil. You need to be really sure of your polling. You theoretically get more districts with a majority for your party, but the majority in each of those districts is thinner than it was before. If something bad happens and there is a wave for the other party, you lose more seats than you would have otherwise.
