Is modem pitcher training/philosophy still worth the costs?

I don’t think it is a good idea to make hitting harder. As it is, guys strike out 25% of the time.

Heavier bats would probably lead to less KOs eventually

I don’t see that stopping guys from throwing as hard as they can and not worry about injury. Do you think it’s will start throwing 120 pitches a game. Mis throws 104 mph and throws over 100 pitches. How is limiting pitchers going to help him? Any pitcher is going to do whatever is necessary to get a guy out. Worry about the next guy after you handle the guy up. I don’t think they will gear down. 

Well it would either decrease injuries or increase them.  The has to be a point where the costs of making out velo outweigh the costs.  As it is now,  many SP still don't try to throw as hard as they would as a reliever.

Wouldn't pitchers just want more and more Ks?  I don't see that working.

Genuinely curious for the counterpoint: Why not raise the mound again?

Do you want the pitchers to further dominate the game? A raised mound will lead to 1-0, 2-1 games. I don’t want to go back to 1968 again, except now with guys who throw over 100 mph. How does a raised mound help the game?

After today's game? I'd be fine with it, yeah.

You want fewer injuries? Guys need to pitch less.

Move the mound back, but also juice the balls again

They also need fans to be interested in the game. 1-0, 2-1 games are not going to keep people interested in the game. And there is no guarantee raising the mound would result in fewer injuries. Just fewer runs, and, probably, fewer fans.
