Honestly I feel like WW1 can really be interesting if you think CK2 & Vicky 2 Mechanics as well as being it's own IP and having HoI IV Combat, and make it feel like Downton abbey and War horse and all the WW1 documentaries. Also to all those Red dead redemption fans and such know that it's a very nice time period with the invention of cars and planes, and birth of modern culture this would be a better first step to seeing a Modern Paradox game.
Integration of Colored and Non Colored units could be a policy or decision for USA, and with Vicky 2's/or/East vs. West pops system it would be better represented than just boosting MP by 50%, and with CK2's Gameplay you can play as a Military officer and follow orders... or nah, a Senator and go House of cards status and try to influence and win over congress, or wealthy person high up in society and try to buy yourself in or out of the war. Or die from the Spanish flu, it can really be epic and a new take on well the genre.
The only problem i see with a early 1900's game is how would things would work in balance and how to keep well lack for a better word, not easily broken, as clearly some thing's would take awhile to think and than to go on the drawing board, and than to write and program all these mechanics will be very tough, maybe the hardest of all their past experiences. Though these mechanics are nothing new so I hope Paradox would be slightly more flexible in their own waters and not feel like their diving head first into the unknown waters.
And to be fair we all want a Pdox Combo of it's greatest games, and it's been quite overdo without the hardcore complexity seeing the past releases, this would really be a game for Pdox experienced veteran. and as well for people who want to try something new and innovative.
It can be quite a different game seeing that if it follows a CK2 stylized route with characters you wont really be able to contribute much to tech since well you're probably not going to play an Einstein, and move to NYC and spend your time buffing up US tech, If it can be pulled off Pops can be like Workers and Characters could be well skilled or ambitious people in the game actually doing moves to move up in life like this is the 1900's the start of the Modern lifestyle of being able to do whatever you set your mind to. (yeah separating who's a pop and whos a playable character will probably be tough)
Multiplayer should probably be a deep focus since well, it just feels better playing as Woodrow Wilson and having your friends play Kaiser Wilhelm and watch them get toppled off of power and maybe you let him stay alive in USA and when the time is right plant him back on the seat of Germany with his claims. Or just have everyone play a member in Congress and just pick who will be president and have an actual functional congress, and maybe join the League of Nations, speaking of LoN that could well be DLC material and such.
