Quite true: going after Trump over niggling regulatory stuff may be “constitutionally” sound, but the only thing that (IMO) is going to move the “approve of impeachment” needle off its current 45-48 standstill is something big, splashy and simple-to-comprehend. Like with Bill Clinton 20 years ago: the public was titillated no end by all the blowjob-in-the-White-House scandalmongering - but didn’t say much until the GOP got him on the simple, splashy, easy-to-comprehend charge of (provably) “lying to a Federal Grand Jury”.
It didn’t work with Clinton, though: but the big difference I see was that back then, the WH and Congressional Dems weren’t as corruptly dedicated to hysterical defense and denialism of the President’s conduct like today’s vile Admin and GOP gang are.

“If you’d impeach over lying about a blue dress how do you not impeach over lying about _____________”

Insert national security, theft, obstruction of justice, abuse of power, etc.
