Not really. Frank said

...if 2017 were to look like 2016 with respect to team counts, all Districts will have at least one more guaranteed slot at their Championship than they did in 2016

But this did not happen. Instead, the number of CHS teams counted as "secured" in this calculation dropped something like 13% to 115. EDIT note that 129 CHS teams are currently registered.
