What the post shows, is that the strongest teams last year would have all been at Detroit, and thus the Detroit event would have been a stronger event than the Houston event.
And I could tell you that would basically always be the case. Detroit would get Ontario and Michigan, plus many strong teams from NE and MAR, and many more.

Houston would get California and Texas as their strong teams, plus a good amount of teams from the south, and most likely the PNW.

Sorry if this hurts anyone, but Ontario and Michigan are stronger then California and Texas, at least in the tier right below the elite. Maybe when California and Texas go to districts this will change, because they do bring up the middle, but for now Detroit would probably have greater depth.
