With this point in mind, I'd still rather have districts. For the same price, you get 2 events, AND you get more plays at each of those events than a regional.
California now has several regionals that are in the 40 team range so that's no longer an advantage. Note on the other hand that many more teams get to a much larger District Champs of 100 teams or more.
