"Since man brought himself under the curse of the law by his fall, it pleased the Lord to make a covenant of grace."
Stan, it seems to me this is a reference to the fall of Adam and not to all humanity. Of course, we know we all fell in Adam, but that is not what the confession is referencing here.
Conclusion:
I don't think your proposed change is necessary and may even muddle the original intent of the authors. We may easily educate new readers by referencing Romans 5 and the truth opened up in the preceding chapter on the Fall.
