I didn't say or infer anything about making stalemate a loss.  That would be unfair to one player and you didn't specify which player- white or black, the attacking player or the defending player.  Yes, the stalemate rules in FIDE Chess also annoy me because it is possible to design chess variants that are absolutely drawless without decreasing fairness.
