I’m coming around more and more to the idea that we’d be better off with a more parliamentary system.

Nah. I grew up with Parliamentary systems, and they create a whole different sort of problems. The US system needs some major work, but the concept of checks-and-balances is pretty sweet. It’s the only government system I know of that, at its core, assumes people suck and are untrustworthy. Dysfunction in US politics isn’t a bug, it’s a feature.
