My question is that if we were to have a brand new electrical system,

Different frequency?

I doubt there's any such thing as an "ideal" system you could roll out
world-wide. There are pros and cons with all systems before you even
get to considering regional and national particularities.

Any sane system can do the task. A large spreadsheet should be able to work out what's cheapest.
