My thought is that FIRST has set up nationals in a way that eventually there will be no "open" spots (you have to qualify in some way). I basically think that over the course of several years we'll see fewer and fewer of the "open" spots available as they get filled up by the increasing number of teams that are able to attend by qualification. The whole point of doing this long term is so that FIRST doesn't have to deal with the numbers of people who will complain that they don't get to go without qualifying (there get enough complaints over how it's setup this year). So I think eventually everyone will have to qualify but I'd love to see FIRST implement something to even the ability to qualify for teams based on the number of events you attend.

No matter how they set up which teams get to go, there is always going to be a lot of unhappy teams. I think FIRST has done the best job they can in this situation.
