Numbers vs. Design

My impression is that FIRST is just trying to keep room available for teams.

I doubt that they actively wanted to limit teams to fewer than 4 events.

To me it seems pretty clear that it is just a numbers game. Given that they didn't have slots for everyone that wanted to go to regionals, they had to cut back somewhere. The logical first place to start is to limit the number of competitions that a team can go to.
