The reason I bring this up is setting the precedent for teams being accused of colluding before the season to end up in the same CMP division, if they knew and could outsmart the placement algorithm.

This is the first I've heard of it. To the best of my knowledge at no point in the last 17 years has what regional you qualified at or what qualifying award you won had anything to do with your division assignment.
