I hear you. However, I think there are already too many Town Hall 8 and 9 bases with more (and I mean 2-3 times more, typically) Elixir available than Gold.
Personally, I get so much Elixir (from Clan War bonuses and my collectors), that I usually just skip those bases, even if they have 300k Elixir available (unless they have >100k Gold, in which case I purposely attack from the side that will get me the most Gold and ignore Elixir). I just don't need it. I've already completed every Elixir upgrade (building upgrade and troop research) except PEKKA level 3, and I don't really care about that right now. Yet I still have plenty of defenses left before I can upgrade to Town Hall 9, and my walls are still Level 7.
Through the first three days of the season, I've donated about 1500 troops (of just about every kind -- I tell my Clan to ask me for Dragons and PEKKA), and I still have trouble slowing my Elixir gains. I've even resorted to putting one of my Elixir Storages next to my Town Hall in my farming base to basically give some away.
Again, I think 200k Gold per wall was reasonable, but 500k is just too much. I think the Elixir option should start at Level 8.
