I'm curious for an economist's take here. It seems to me that the incentives are such that now you've just guaranteed that all PIs will now submit 6 applications every year. It may be less that what you originally were seeing, but I don't know the population stats. It also may be that you've now poisoned all the other grant agencies (NSF, etc) and they'll soon have to have maximums too.
