I'm not one to judge the effectiveness of a new hash algorithm. But my personal concern here is making something else worse: an unintended consequence. IMO the bar for changing this would be very high, and at the least it would need to be addressing a known, not theoretical, problem.

That said, I'll let the experts debate your proposed change.
