The last two house rules are fundamental mistakes, since roleplaying gaming is, more than anything else, about how the characters (and note that when I write characters I mean characters. If I am saying something that applies only to player characters then I'll write it "player characters") are different from each other.

You are choosing to ignore individual differences between characters in terms of ST, HT, the Fit/Unfit spectrum, and Move, and that's a very bad idea.
