Why not switch the position of the 1 and 9 in 9-ball to make it more interesting?

The pros have the cut break figured out too well and I feel that sissy breaking is not good for the spectators.

If we switched the balls like stated or even just the 1 ball not being the head ball, new tacticts would need to be put in place.

What do you think?
Because every first shot would be a violation for not striking the lowest numbered ball on the table first?

“If lowest numbered object ball is behind the headstring, it is removed from play and the lowest numbered ball outside the headstring becomes the next object ball.”

My dad was too young for Korea and too old for Vietnam. He has always played the lowest ball behind the headstring would be spotted. Cue ball in kitchen, per the Navy servicemen in Kodiak, Alaska.
