You can't just think to add slots-poor economics.
Wow, thanks for bringing us back to reality. When you think about it that way, it would seem like FIRST's hands are tied. No one wants to take away the championship qualification from one of the regional awards, but with the end of open Championship registration, it looks like FIRST thinks 400 teams is already too many. I would agree that this type of change will probably come with the addition of more district systems.
