I agree completely that underdog games can be fun but I believe that at least for tourney play a balancing act is necessary.
If flat IPC bonuses are boring there are alternatives…
You can make existing national objectives easier or more rewarding for the underdog team.
You can also create new ones that give the game even more historic flavor. One that I used for classic A&A is that Japan got 1 IPC for each unit it had within 2 territories of West United states (including forces aboard transports).
You can also give the underdogs a free tech, or free tech rolls.
You can also enact restrictions, for instance: Russia cannot attack Japan until Japan attacks them first.

House Rules!
They always add flare like what you were saying attack on russia only formidable until japan attacks them which would be really historical and maybe making territories like “midway” worth an ipc for the axis and not for the allies love house rules like that
