Go for a full IR more easely achievable and call that the IMCR then we can all say the IMCR has been saved like the whale.
Well yes, obviously
So, let's see what you would need to achieve...
1) Doable in one's local PPL school
2) Not costing £10,000
3) dammit I am not typing that list all over again
Politically, it isn't going to happen.
The best outcome will be the existing IMCR to remain (under some local-airspace political fudge), and possibly a simpler ICAO IR designed to entice all the FAA IR holders to move over to it.
As regards my selection of flying weather: I don't go if the enroute section cannot be flown in
VMC - up to FL200. Plus some other considerations.
