2020 AFL International Cup update

I don't get it at all. I don't see why countries should be penalised for their players wanting to improve themselves as long as they play enough qulaifying games at home. (Forget pakistan that's a political furphy)
I don't get it at all to limit the number of teams. There are two options IMO.
1. A quality competition - which requires quality promotion, quality facilities and a stand-alone fixture. e.g. pre-finals bye.The problem is the gap in standard to attract AFL fan types to attend and of course the expenditure.Also, how do teams qualify and how do we not discriminate against fast-improving team ?. How do women's teams fit into all of this ?
2. As many countries as possible. With a multi-divisional stricture, men and women, new teams and new developments, I don't see the reason to change the formulae except to improve the overall product and fine tune costs etc.
