In my mind, the Real Problem is that the Nationals have too low of a ratio of seeding rounds to teams in the competition.

The sorting process is directly related to the ratio of seeding rounds to number of teams in the competition.

In order for teams to have the same amount of information about the relative strengths & weakeness of teams as they have at a regional, there needs to be 4 or 5 times as many seeding rounds as are at a regional if there are 4 or 5 times as many teams at the Nationals.

Failing this there will always be the tendency to miss good teams and to fall back on the known teams from your regional.
