Or you know, you could just not use solid rocket boosters at all. Solid rocket booster make absolutely no sense at all, they are only used because they represent a political interest.

Note how there was no attempt at using them for Apollo and no new rocket company uses them.

The only reason so many countries relay on them because it sharing costs with ICBMs.

NASA own internal investigation suggested the same thing, but politics is more important.
