the problem with flubbing is the dishonesty and unilateralness. You can play a different system that doesn't create the situation your players don't like so easily.

Or honestly just import Fate points and "succeed at a cost" into dnd. The dice system still sucks but that would help tremendously.

Fudging isn't unique to DND, though I agree that people would be better off trying anything else.

The system is a means to an end. No system captures its tone perfectly through mechanics.
