No. The good fix is to let the cat and mouse games go on and on and on - live ball, players end the play. Ball in the circle means nothing. Runners can lead off, runners can taunt the pitcher, etc. Let 'em live with the result of their actions.
Deleting the IFR is no big deal - if the players are not skilled enough to pull of the easy double play, then all the IFR does is give the defense an unearned out.
If one team IS skilled enought to pull it off, then the commissioner will suddenly understand the reason for the rule.
