This might just be my observations, but on the plates at our club, the worst seems to be .45acp, followed by .22LR. I agree with those that have stated that plate condition makes a big difference in ricochets. Poorly maintained plates, especially those with deep craters really introduce random splash and rebounds. We spend a lot of time maintaining our general plinking steel targets at our ranges, and use a separate, fairly pristine set for SCSA events. So far, it's worked well.

It seems to me that there is support for not adding additional movement, and I would support that position. The other interesting feedback in this thread is the lack of space that some clubs have in terms of setting up some of the stages. Maybe there could be a short course SC and a long course SC, that would allow clubs to run matches that fit their range footprint. Each course would have standardized stages in my thinking, and qualification criteria. Kind of like executive golf courses and standard length courses...
