Scotland would only need one little reform to get rid of most disproportionality - move from regional lists to one national list, just like New Zealand does.
New Zealand even has now a higher share of constituency seats in parliament than Scotland does. Still allows for very proportional outcomes.

Scotland's set for one of the world's most disproportionate legislatures thanks to the constitutional divide, fragmenting party system, and lopsided electoral system that fails to incentivise good governance.
