Yep, both the house and college were meant to expand with tge population, which makes their issues far less egregious. Is the electoral college particularly good? Fuck no, but it was never meant to meant to be capped either it was still a proportional system. Hell the only reason either were capped was due to the fact that at the time the population was in flux both in number and location, but it shouldve been uncapped either in the 50s or 60s since thats around when things stabilized.
99% of the problems stem from the house not getting bigger over the last 100 years.

The electoral college makes s3nse for a federated system, but the US has largely eroded states as a meaningful level of governance.
