This is trying to solve gerrymandering with (more, different) gerrymandering. That's not the way it should work.
Districts should represent something from the real world, outside of political affiliation.
It's natural for the political "color" of a district to change over time, because people move, and sometimes get older and change their mind. This should not result in a change of the shape of the district.
