I'd rather not add any more starting wars, it messes too much with the balance even if it is historical.
 
The 'balance' I refer to is how games tend to develop, for example Russia forming in most games (but not all). While EU is inherently unbalanced, I spent a *lot* of time tuning things during EU4's development to ensure that certain historical things would have a decent chance to happen, and messing with that for the sake of adding another starting war is not in the cards.
