Yes! I had this exact thought during the game. Now that's a real disincentive. At the very least the offending team would have to think long term strategy about who/when to flop.

Doesn't hurt the non-fakers. If it's a major injury, you're not coming back in anyway. Moderate injury, you still need medical attention. If it really is a cramp bc it's so hot in the dome or bc Syracuse plays so fast, then maybe you are not in game shape and should just sit out the drive and hydrate. Anything less and you should be able to get yourself off the field. (I know it's not this black and white but humor me)

Which brings me to the second part of the new rule. Take care of this on the sideline! Anytime a player goes down, immediately bring the stretcher and get the guy off the field. Why have 27 guys hovering around? You have the manpower. Maybe even use an ambulance. Whatever gets the game back on as quickly as possible. (Like the kids who mop up the basketball court. They're pretty quick)
Hell, add some circus music.

I bet you crowds would stop booing players and start cheering for the the trainers.
