Small variants are supposed to be quick, and the centre square does overcome the problem of having only one of an otherwise colourbound piece. Mind you, the diplomat also does that in an entirekly different way. Perhaps that could inspire two new variants, one with the Diplomat but no centre square (in which case Pawns must move circularly) and one vice versa.
