The problem is, that isn’t remotely proportional for a parliamentary election. It’s proportional-ish if you’re just electing one person, like a president, but if your aim is for a national parliament to accurately reflect the votes of the nation it doesn’t work, because the vote is only transferable within an individual constituency.
At least that would reflect the person, that most people in that area wanted. As it stands it unlikely that most wanted the MP they got Hence it would be a start
