The states vote could go to candidate B and Candidate A wins the popular vote and hence the state awards EV's to the candidate that the state did not vote for... I call that a disenfranchisement
Again, there is no federal requirement that electoral college votes go to the winner of the state popular vote. In fact, two states already have a different mechanism for allocating their votes.
People are confusing tradition with law.

It is also possible that the next time the state houses turn over that the bill gets repealed.
True, but if the value of votes falls below 270, the all states would be back to the status quo.
