District size is limited by the schedule - a compressed schedule for a 2 day event means that you need to limit the number of teams in order to get enough plays per team during quals - add more teams, and the plays per team decreases. Plus, with the scom pressed chedule you have less time to get everyone inspected before their first match - add more teams and you'll need to add inspectors to handle the additional load. There are a lot of ramifications for adding more teams to an event
