+We have a related policy rule in Bitcoin Core for some time now, the
+weight of the transaction for the purpose of mining is
+max(weight,lambda*sigops), though we set lambda a bit lower than makes
+sense due to how checkmultisig. This policy rule replaced an earlier
+one which was almost equivalent to your proposal: it rejected
+transactions with too many sigops per the byte count, but we found it
+block actual more or less sensible transactions.
