All the good, rational arguments for going back to 4 classes
regarding the competiton aspects tend to get shot down
here. So I wonder if there is any more receptiveness
for the logistical and economical reasons?

Travel costs jsut continue to rise, and our present 6 class
system is very problematic. There's no perfect system,
but fewer classes allows for more compact districts.
And the playoff alignment makes for some just outrageous
possibilities. As I've pointed out in other threads, Bell
Co. could potentially meet Paducah Tilghman in one scenario.
And you can parse it with speed averages all you want,
you aren't going to make that trip on a bus in less than 8 hours
overall travel time.

In another unrelated thread someone was talking about
non-district scheduling too. And something that people
just probably won't consciously admit, is the mental
barrier class differential makes. It's not necessarily even
rational, but in the back of their minds a 2A school coach
just might automatically make off even considering asking
for a game with a 5A program, whereas the same coach
might go for it the same school was a 3A school in a 4 class
system. As well as all the other variations of that scenario.

It's been well established that those who prefer a 6 class
system, ARDENTLY support that system. And the KHSAA
in its infinite LACK of wisdom comes down on that side.
Too bad only emotional arguments support it. All
the ones based on logic support going back to 4.

The rationale you described is the same that is used by people who support more gun control. You can show them facts all day long but they use emotional arguments instead of facts.
