This prevents NY, TX, and CA from being tyrants who dictate to states with lower populations.

Also here's a good rebuttal from anyone who takes the logistics of changing it seriously, from NPR no less.

Not really. States can still elect democrats to tax and regulate their state to their hearts content. See California, New York, etc.. The rest of us depend on the electoral college to limit the madness.
