Also, I have a question: does Michigan and/or MAR grant automatic slots at the District Championship for winners of District events like it says in the proposal?

No. If the winners were all invited per the proposal from NE, from the 10 possibly 11 districts, you would have to have 66 slots. If you include th 12 sign up slots for NE, when they reach 200-ish team like MI, then they will have the possibility for 2 points based slots at their 80 team event... Realistically, tehre is a fari amount of event winner overlap. Often 2/3 of the winning alliance will win some other event as well. So instead of 66, they would only take up about 56 (Assumes 10 repeaters) of the 80 slots thus with the 12 (sign ups), you would also have about 12 getting in from points. Of course, they have a couple of years before they reach that point.
