Well, when they had the "self-judging" aspect at regionals, many people complained about the lack of experience many of the student judges had (hope no one complained about me ^_^). This also led to some "cool" but content-weak animations doing well... but I liked it and hope they continue with it, but just for regionals, maybe with a screening process for student judges. Nationals should stick with the pros.
As for taking regional winners out of other regionals, you would end up with 15 or so different animations per conference advancing... I very much doubt there were 15 good animations per conference which means the whole purpose of regionals "weeding out" the good from the not so good is lost
