A new space launch site...

That blows up if you use too much thrust and only works for smaller rockets. Something under 7000 tons of thrust converted to KSP scale.(Or starts that with a to be determined upgrade path! ;p) and start adding realistic problems like engine failures for all the reasons engines can fail. Make rockets as interesting as space planes or more. We need more realism!!

Engine failures can exist in the harder difficulties, like rocket scientist mode. They shouldn’t go outside of that though.

But what if people want a mode with more...

I expect destructible buildings (including launchpads) will be an optional 'thing' as it was in KSP1.

Random part failures I very much doubt will be a stock option, but there  will almost certainly be a mod that adds it.

The devs should add more options to differentiate the difficulty modes. The only setting that actually makes the game harder in both games is commnet. 

I’d love to see stuff like more advanced aerodynamics, part failures, some kind of sudo n-body physics and other stuff that would actually make the harder modes hard.

This is a perfect reason for mods  I don't see a reason to add engine failure as you the player didn't do/forget anything to cause the engine failure and a random chance failed launch sounds very annoying for no reason. But I'm sure someone, or you, can create a mod if it's desired!
