You offer some interesting choices fit for a king, methinks!
Hmmmmm....
I love your imagination and counter with a slight adjustment:
Full tech
Geo Balance Mod 2
No Warp points connected.
Three Good Planets.
Random Placement since there wouldn’t be any warp points.
No Ancient race or Religious.
ZERO racial points
AND, a twist that can be verified by game ending (if necessary but I don't think it necessary)...a gentleman's agreement that no system have more than 4 warpholes.
It could be quite an interesting game!

I hesitated to do the three-planet start because; it is imposable to tell how many systems each of us would start with. It would be unfair if one of us started with all three planets in one system and another with one planet in three different systems. I would agree to it only if we restart in the case of not having the same number of starting systems.
As for the 4 warpholes limit what do we do if we accidentally open a fifth one? Can we knowingly open a fifth one into an enemy system in order to attack? Perhaps if we each were allowed to have a maximum of 3 warp points total on any one turn that can violate the 4 warp points maximum per system rule?
Other than the above two concerns and to note that Intel is included. I would find the above game to be very interesting and agreeable.
Edited to add summary.

except for each player allowed a total of 3 warpoint game wide on any turn that can violate the 4 maximum rule.
