At first I didn't love this concept but after thinking about I think it obviously the best choice.

TDs are currently worth 7 points anyways because the kick is so easy. Making a TD officially 7, eliminating the kick aspect, and integrating the +1/-1 go-for-it option essentially makes it exactly the same as it now. But games can be shorter and I'll bet we see more teams going for it too.
