I've always felt that a simpler solution would be to just increase the number of representatives.
In 1912 (the last time we added more), the US population was ~90 million, and it's currently at around ~340 mil and we still have only 435 representatives.
1912: 1 rep per 20,000 people
2024: 1 rep per 780,000 people
This doesn't "solve" gerrymandering but it does blunt the effectiveness of it (among hopefully some other positive effects.)
