There are lots of potential behind the scenes motives. We will never know unless FIRST decides to share.
To be efficient FIRST needs to manage all the events like a business. This appears to be the main factor here. Low performing "stores" get closed, so you can open at a different location just a block away. So the block here, is in anther state. Case by case handling sets a precedent they may not want to deal with.
If you look at the CA District angle, this is one more incentive to push CA into the District model. Forces CA to get it done! It's in their best interest to if Las Vegas might go away.
This is only 2 of dozens of potential motives.
