How much will FIRST raise the tower strength to make capturing the tower a very difficult task once again?

Given the variation in district strengths (compare the FIM juggernaut against, say, North Carolina), I would be surprised if FIRST made the number higher than 10 for DCMP play. Might not even change it at all, depending on their analysis of the smaller districts. Considering the FRC Chief Referee is situated in one of those smaller districts (North Carolina), it's safe to say they have those data points.
For Championship, I would be surprised if FIRST made the number any less than 10.
