It takes months/years to plan and execute a successful regional event. I can only imagine all the things that go into 300 200+ teams at nationals, plus trying to keep it affordable. For this reason, FIRST probably won't rotate the location of the Champs. Yah it sucks for teams that are far away, but, what are ya gonna do.
As far as the difference in venues, I spent a year at each. Houston was my least favorite, though I love the city. WDW was better. Hot-lanta is the best, IMO, especially from the driver walk standpoint. That's where Houston was lacking. If there is a good thing about WDW, during the divisional quals you were very close, most of the time closer than most regionals, but for closing/opening ceremonies if you weren't close you were almost too far away to keep interest. Plus it was outside, and while there never was rain while I was there I'd hate to see what happened when it was. Plus a girl on my team got pooped on by a bird
it was funny though.
