But I would be OK with a FIFO agenda system, to remove that power from the Speaker.

Well, that's not going to happen. I don't think there are many legislatures that are set up that way, where any bill filed by any legislator automatically gets a floor vote. There's almost always a gatekeeper, typically the Speaker/Majority Leader. It's that way in most state legislatures, AIUI - it certainly is in Florida, and a quick google search shows it's the same way in Arizona. The person who controls the gavel controls the agenda.
