Idk it's already kinda gamey. You can just hit the reform government button and kick people out of power. I've been ignoring the loss to legitimacy with no problem, they don't actually seem to give a shit until you start passing laws they don't like
They could probably rebalance that but it is kinda realistic too. Laws are the thing that can significantly change one interest group's grasp over power, it makes sense they panic when you effectively try to oust them out of power with a different tax law or something.
You're right that illegitimate governments have too little penalties though.
