The Golden Throne (Buffed gold lavatories)

Balancing as a long term mod?
I got lots of feedback that this mod is quite broken/OP.
Which is not wrong, it was meant as a gag mod. But since there is more interest in it than i anticipated, I will try to tweak and fix it up a bit better.

I don't want to take away the option to make it OP for those that just like it that way or already set it so.

But I'm open to suggestions how to set the defaults of this mod to be more sensible for a proper playthrough. Maybe +2 Moral and +5 decor? Or even just +1 moral? Or a completely different effect?

my Immediate thought would be just to only allow the effect the apply when the lavatory is set to a specific duplicant. I've had thoughts of only allowing the golden lavatory to one duplicant so only one duplicant has the monarch's crown. Though I don't think this mod needs balancing much more than just like, maybe a smaller morale boost.

I love the whole concept, and I love that its configurable. I've already made executive washrooms for my more stressy dupes :D
I tried brainstorming some levers to pull, and I guess the dupes own decor level could take a smaller hit (ie, other dupes find the crown and pretending they're awesome annoying).

I'd love a golden sink to go with the golden throne to help my executive washrooms reach their peak :D

In-world logic aside, giving the dupe a penalty to the decor of their outfit means you trade off the individual dupe getting a bonus vs everyone else getting a penalty. This way having golden thrones for everyone could actually cause problems, and you start having to use them strategically.

On the other hand it may create an elite class of dupes,which seems counter-intuitive :D
