I think that no matter the arguments on each side, the USFSA is not going to try to put the genie back in the bottle. By steadily relaxing the "winner takes all" tradition over the last few years, they increase the influence of their Selection Committee. Committees are not in the business of reducing their own power. The USFSA will always want to be the final arbiter of who goes to the Olympics and World Championships.
I, for one, have gotten used to the current practice: Placement at Nationals is the most important factor, but recent success in International competition is also taken into account. This guarantees that, for better or for worse, there will always be plenty of wuz-robbing among fans.
