I might be talking out my back side a bit here but, off the top of my head...

What if each district were assigned x number of additional spots in their non-home champs. I'd also argue their main allocation would need to be at 2016 (or slightly lower) levels, but the total allocation would be larger.

And to be fair, the southern districts would also gain additional slots to attend the north as well, albeit perhaps not as many.

It would give FIRST a tuneable, if you will, to try to balance things.
