it's generally assumed hat when you cut monster HP you also increase their damage, which ends up having the same general but transparent effect as lowering player hp without overpowering healing.

not only do your players not feel like they are getting something taken from them, it encourages styles of play and power selections you would rarely see in the early, padded-sumo days of 4E

Oh right. I think it'd be a lot easier on the DM to have player hit points halved than to make calculations on every hit a monster makes though. It sounds like it would diminish what is trying to be achieved (faster combat).
