Feature to let everyone to remove/hide defensive buildings from war layouts
Problem description
Members who have been playing this game for many years often have well-developed bases with many defensive buildings which is now coming back to bite them as having fewer defensive buildings actually results in more favourable matches in wars. For example, having a TH11 without any defences but with max miners/bowlers can greatly increase the chances of winning wars. In effect, the most loyal players who were there since day 1 and purchased all those buildings just as Supercell wanted them to do are now being punished by the matchmaking algorithm.
Proposed solution
In the spirit of giving everyone a fair chance of enjoying the benefits of lopsided bases, including long-term players who already purchased various defences or people with normal lives who don't have time to manage multiple accounts, I hereby propose a feature that would let everyone either downgrade or completely remove buildings from their war layouts so that they can get the benefits of low war weights, e.g. by removing infernos from war layouts, then activating those layouts without those defences and starting the war with the war weight reduced accordingly.
Since Supercell is promoting lopsided bases anyway, a feature that lets everyone create their own lopsided base in wars at zero cost would eventually result in a state of equilibrium where all clans have the desired number of lopsided bases to meet their objectives. It would also greatly reduce (if not eliminate) all those complaints about lopsided bases as everyone could almost instantly create the kind of lopsided base themselves that they were complaining about moments ago.
Let's talk about the money
There would undoubtedly be a lot of money to be made by Supercell through such a feature as all those people who created lopsided bases for wars would be able to purchase all those defensive buildings for regular matchmaking without affecting their war weights at all.
