I've done some analysis that I have shared in this thread.

Long story short. Newton is stacked. Some others, not so much (Curie & Galileo for example).

Back to the point the OP was making, yes, think too think FIRST should make an effort to balance the divisions. Whether it is via OPR or a District-like point system or another metric behind door #3, I don't think that the current system is where we want to be going forward. Year after year, FIRST ends up with obviously lopsided divisions and I think that damages the integrity of the sport -- Does FIRST care about such things to fix them? A question for another day...
