In my opinion, the answer should be this: Remove regional competitions, transfer everyone over to the District system. This way we could have district championship events (set up to be smaller versions of the current cmp) with the top teams still earning a spot at the World Championship. This would make the champs experience far more obtainable for a lot more teams without removing the prestige of the World championship top tier stage.
I think with the venues already booked, they are locked in.

I agree with you though that moving everyone to districts and district championships feeding into one Championship would have been better in terms of travel distance, cost, and overall experience/competition/inspiration factors.
