Then could you not apply the same logic to Modern Chess Bishops?

No. The Modern Chess board is 9x9, and already has Reverse Symmery. Even without the Reverse Symmetry, the Bishops would end up on the same color.

If you want to continue discussing Modern Chess or the Bishop Adjustment Rule lets do it here (for Modern Chess) or here (for Bishop Adjustment).

Thanks.

Sorry if I'm seeming argumentative.

Not at all. Friendly dialogue is always healthy.

...since you seem to like weak pieces

Not at all again (I quite like the strong Prime Minister [Bishop+Knight]). I just don't want to stray away too much in this variant from the Courier Chess flavour.
