Personally I'd like to see the UDP recommend they shrink their floorplates by 1,000-2,000 sq ft and add 1-2 more floors to reach the max height and strengthen the towers aesthetic proportions.

KPF could probably do that ... magnificently. It could be a centrepiece building for its height, presence, and design features, with them at the helm. Remember the MNP !! This one might be its big brother, of a sort.

Now I am sad that the other new office tower at Thurlow and Pender won't be taller than it is. How much vibrance those would together add to that area (they still do).

Are you talking about already existent buildings, or one that is planned? If it is planned, could I ask you to give me a link to it? Thanks.
