The main problem goes away by the simple expedient of pushing up the minimum TOW used to calculate the departure.

The nature of the Vmcg centreline deviation versus failure speed characteristic curve is such that one only needs to go a little way up in speed to see the problems rapidly reduce.

Whether that is enough for the desired goal remains to be seen but one should see a measurable improvement in runway width required for most Types.
