To be fair, the district system does this already. Lets say district A had 250 teams and 50 of them are really good, while district B also has 250 teams, but only 20 of them are really good. District A might not be able to send all of their good teams, while district B gets to send a number of not as good teams to championships anyway.

Any sort of equal representation system based on region will do this, and that's (I think) an unavoidable problem, albeit a lesser problem compared to how championship slots are currently allocated to regionals.
