It's because of the EXPLOIT that lets you start as P1 very often.

If it was fixed, then it doesn't matter if P1 wins 100% of the time. Since you have equal chance of being P1 or P2, then it's fair.

Are you kidding me? Why don't you just run along and flip a coin against your friends then. Sounds like great fun.

Wait, slow down, its a perfectly legit point unless the first turn advantage is indeed "autowin" or close which isnt established. If the first turn advantage is merely significant, then fixing the exploit would go a long way.

While I dont find the arguments against 3 wits for p1 first turn at all persuasive and think this is an obvious solution, closing the go first loophole is a good idea regardless.
