And having a few small parties who hold a disproportionate of the power to keep the ruling coalition in place has big drawbacks as well.

Indeed it does.

Italy partially corrected the problem by introducing a minimum 4% threshold for entry into Parliament.

That reduced the number of tiny parties and the ensuing unstable and incoherent coalition governments that came with it to a large degree.

Israel probably needs to do the same.

4 or 5% is about the right number I think.
