Nice sentiment, but the implementation is inept. The courts have determined that existing boundaries, including county and village boundaries, matter. Physical features matter. Existing "communities of interest" matter. Population equality matters. And, sadly, race matters a lot.
The only sort-of mathematical awareness that the courts have concerns contiguity and compactness. Contiguity is easy. Compactness has a million definitions, and the courts haven't settled on a meaningful one. Come up with a compelling, mathematically-sound definition of compactness and you might have something.
Also, the author ought get at least a basic familiarity with the literature on political map-drawing. If he had it, he would know that maps are drawn on census blocks and that houses are never "split".
