I asked this question on the Blog post and here is Frank's answer. I think he explains it very well. It seems like a fair approach especially while there is a mixture of Districts and Regionals.

District Slot Totals

Submitted by Frank Merrick on Fri, 12/12/2014 - 09:56.
Districts are able to send their allocated total, regardless of whether those teams earned those slots in the District or outside the District. Districts may add to this total by having pre-qualified teams or having teams selected from the waitlist. Allowing a District to not consider slots earned at Regionals in their allocations would lead to over-representation of teams from the District at Championship, and cause fairness concerns from a non-District team perspective, as non-District teams are not able in any way to earn those guaranteed in-District Championship slots.
