There would seem to be one obvious solution that I haven’t heard people talking about.

More games means more money.

More money could mean more ability to pay players.

Solution - use the money to increase squad sizes, allow greater rotation of players to rest, ask football associations to increase the number of players that can be registered to play

I get that Everton have broken the rules, and I definitely agree that a punishment of a points deduction is fair.

What I absolutely cannot understand is how breaking FFP rules by ~£20m is punished (-10pts) more harshly than a club actually going into administration (-9pts).

Breaking FFP rules are bad financial management, going into administration is literally threatening the existence of the club
