I don't think it makes it fair, man. If the group you're in is filled with a number of people from the top 40 (group 1) and you lose to a group with most of the top 10 (group 2) in the first round, its kinda unfair to those who've worked their way to being part of top 40. Especially if group 2 has to fight a group way weaker than group 1 in the finals.
