That might be a "stock reply" for that particular event, but it sounds like useful information for teams on that wait list. Did you ask about numbers and timing? More specific questions might elicit more specific answers.
I doubt that the two events' planning committees are sharing information on who's on the wait lists, and I very much doubt that they would give lower priority to a team trying to sign up elsewhere. If you can sign up for another event without withdrawing from this one, I'd suggest you do so. It could be seen as abusing the system, but in the unlikely case that you end up getting registered for both, there's no penalty for withdrawing from a competition before you have paid.
