If the number of electors was distributed in a way that didn’t give disproportional representation to states with very small populations, that would be great. Also, the notion that the US is truly a federation of independent states hasn’t been accurate for at least 200 years.
It’s a bit disproportional for a few states but then again, you can say the votes of people in Wyoming are worth more relatively speaking but it’s still just 3 electors in the end. No one will pay much attention to them either way, unlike the more populous states which can swing elections.

You say that like it’s a bad thing for people to be in charge rather than arbitrary lines drawn on maps.
I’m saying they don’t matter with their 3 votes, I don’t think the people there feel very important in deciding the presidential election.
