This is true in FiM as well (I thought we stole it from them, but you'd know better than I). I think the point is that if, say, Bedford's winning alliance is all 3rd district teams, those points are effectively "gone". Whereas, if it'd only had 2nd district teams, the points wouldn't be gone, and everyone competing for them would have had the same work time prior. The OP would rather compete against all 2nd district teams, so that the teams the points matter to would have an improved shot at getting them, correct?
Of course, in this case there wasn't much FiM could do. The 2nd-3rd imbalance is so bad because there are so many necessarily open slots, and the event was added so late.
