What I mean by "you can't do it" is that I don't think audiences will accept it, at least not to anything like the same degree. Viewers who will gladly come back week after week to watch Gregory House be a brilliant failure as a human being would probably complain a lot faster about how Georgia House is such a bitch, god, I don't care how smart she is, why does anybody put up with her . . . .
I do like your notion of not flipping Cuddy. That would be a great chance to play with female friendship. (But I'm unconvinced by the House/Cuddy relationship anyway, so I wouldn't see de-romancing it as any loss.)
