There doesn't need to be a limit on the number of agreements, there 
needs to be a limit on what agreements can do.

This proposal would force everyone to join a faction, just to vote, even 
if they have no interest in playing the faction game.

Why ? if factions can't vote there's no incentive to create an excessive 
number

It would still be artificial, why not let players regulate the number of 
factions/agreements on what they need ?
