TI3 and using duplicate SC's

By Lowecore, in Twilight Imperium 3rd Edition

So I saw a thread where some players were using an option to allow people to take their choice of War1 or War2 during the Strategy Phase, but once one was taken, the other was flipped and not able to be chosen that round.

How do people feel about this? My group always plays with the SE cards so we never see War1 anymore. The secondaries are almost the same so I think this is possible to do without any other added house rules.

While Im interested in this option, I kinda feel that maybe War1 was toned down because it was too powerful. Does anyone still play with War1? Does it create too much Chaos and imbalance?
