Gen speed reduction options
With the incoming Ruin nerf, what simple options do we have that could be shoehorned in between the end of the PTB and the full release?
Right now, gen speed is reduced for each person working on a SINGLE gen. Is it now time to slow down gen speed for the total number of survivors working on ANY gens?
At least this way, at the start of the game when 3 gens are being worked on, the gens won't all be completed in 80 seconds but at the end of the game, when there are only two survivors left, the one not in a chase can quickly power through the final gen.
Would this idea work? If not, what other options could be implemented quickly?

Revert the change until a solution is found?
Maybe increase the time for gens in general regarding the killer:average survivor rank ratio (rank 1 survivor rank 20 killer loooooooong time to repair, rank 20 survivor and rank 1 killer short time to repair)
Gens could repair slower the more gens are left? When none have been repaired, they repair slowly and when there is only one to go, they repair quickly?
That's not a horrible idea and it would give players who aren't as skilled (not in the same rank) a better chance at success without being too intrusive. For survivors though it should go with the lowest rank in the lobby, not a random rank 15 they dragged along. It'd give rank 9 killers a slightly better chance vs the rank one sweat squads that can't get in a game because people are leaving.
Hmm maybe but that would promote 3 gening not that its a bad thing but sometimes ive got locked into a stalemate with survivors.
Go play Survivor.
Don't have to worry about gen if there's no killer in the game.
I think something similar to identity V could work.
Gens progress slower until the first hook or for like 2 minutes if the killer fails to hook anyone. I don't know how much slower would be fair though.
