I agree that ftpt sucks, but there’s still a need to determine boundaries for various administrative district to handle geographically dependent issues.

My country has a psuedo algorithm in law that guides how to draw these boundaries. It basically forces each constituency to be convex. There is still some freedom in the process, and there is still some gerrymandering, but harder than in some other countries.
