I'm going to make a tangential but somewhat related suggestion.  Instead
of reducing the number of +2s required, what would happen if we gave our
more trusted but non-core reviewers the ability to +2, but leave +A in
the hands of the existing cores?  That way, their reviews can be counted
by the core reviewers.  With this change in policy, you still need two
+2s, but you have more people that can +2, and you only need one of our
limited number of cores to review.
