I'd have to look again, but I recall Chu Shogi has a lot of short-range pieces. Reasonably popular (so far) 12x12 Gross Chess does have quite a few long-range types though, which may definitely be a possible counterargument to 12x12 being too hard for most people to grasp. Maybe (like for Chu Shogi) a lot of folks would prefer a well-played CV game to not last for too many moves on average, though.
