Makes me wonder what the true "path of least resistance" of qualifying for Champs actually is.

218 out of 600 is much closer to 1/3 of spots than 1/2 of spots.
The quantity of teams each district sends to the Championship is based on their proportion of the total teams in FRC. A more populous district sends more teams.
In terms of the "path of least resistance," it really depends on what your team is. If you're a high performing team, districts affords you a much greater chance to qualify via points. If you're a middle of the pack team, you may have better odds in a regional format, and hoping to be on the right alliance at the right time and take home a regional win (or wildcard).
