I disagree, and think it would be harmful. I think we’d be better off splitting up the US government into smaller pieces but everyone loses their mind when I suggest it.

The US government is already split. You want country ran by companies? As much as I do not like politicians I think companies running the country would do much worse.

Like states or regions or cities? You are not the first to have this idea. It was a founding principle for the US

Agreed, and local power tends to be much more responsive and accountable than the Feds. It's one of the best parts of the system (the Senate is the worst imo)

The way to do that in a manner that doesn't simply empower multinational corporations, is to uncap the House of Representatives by repealing the Reapportionment Act of 1929.

Because without also limiting the size and power of private entities you're just arguing for corporatism with extra steps.

If you force government to be smaller and less powerful than corporations then corporations become government.
