Starvation, thirst and suffocation

I think that the rules on starving/suffocation makes little sense
p.159 of the dmg

as they are written a 1st level character can survive more than a 30th level character

NEW RULE
starving/suffocation (and the revenant wondrus item)

instead of
"lose level hp" per time period

write
"lose level+4 hp" per time period

the numbers

01st level fighter 30 hp
10th level fighter 86 hp
20th level fighter 150 hp
30th level fighter 210 hp


old rule (lose hp=level)
01st level goes to 0hp or less after 30 failed saves
10th level goes to 0hp or less after 8 failed saves
20th level goes to 0hp or less after 8 failed saves
30th level goes to 0hp or less after 7 failed saves

new rule (lose hp=level+4)
01st level goes to 0hp or less after 6 failed saves
10th level goes to 0hp or less after 7 failed saves
20th level goes to 0hp or less after 7 failed saves
30th level goes to 0hp or less after 7 failed saves

should work without much of a fuss
