I have spent hours fascinated by alternatives to FPTP. After all, redesigning the world we live in is always fun. But I keep coming back to an irreducible truth: any proportional representation system produces more minority governments, coalitions, and more frequent elections. Under any form of PR, it would become routine for any governing party to face an opposition that could, in combination, outvote them. Just look at how that has worked for Italy, an example which has vaccinated the rest of Europe against more PR voting. It has become the norm for any party that loses to trot out the idea that they could have had more power under some form of PR. Equally frequent, a winning party will find some good reason not to change the voting system even if they had asked for it the last time they found themselves on the losing side. Prefer a government that can do nothing?—having a government that can actually pass the measures they promised the voters sounds rather democratic to me!
