Its not like some original D2 is going to magically bounce to D6 or 7 anyway, so this is pretty inefficient in my opinion.
There are some people who may like this, but you are also going to get more "this is bs" because 2nd place in D1-9 is going to say 1st should have been in the next division up

bolded because I like this statement.
Well, you'd need to do good enough to stay above elimination, and it would be tight.

The top two players would be of similar skill level, so it wouldn't be "BS" if the winner got a few less goods.
If they were fit for the next division up they would be there.

And moving many divisions is very possible, I was borderline D2/D3 IMO at the beginning of this tournament, and I'm now borderline D4.
Which would be 3-4 divisions up in this tournament.
