I think the main reason this kind of thing hasn't gotten traction is that it would allow miners alone to chart the course of block sizes. Miners are likely to have more powerful equipment than everybody else, and with the current network design, that could reduce the population of nodes able to keep up, with no limit in the loss of decentralization.
