It's just a matter of bringing it to their attention and hoping they find good enough reason to avert enough time to making changes.
Those examples they never said "No" to.

The reason SE doesnt agree with this option, is because if the FC leader leaves, this now becomes a "The lives of the many, outweight the lives of the few." in their minds.
And we dont know how the Japanese players will view this situation.

So I think it would take quite a bit more to convince them, or the easy way out, is just have the extra feature of "only promote to equal level" on top of the current feature, which they will have less reason to argue against.
