1) That would cost them money because the higher tier leagues are going to be given a bigger budget. 2) If they dominate the lower level, they are just going to get promoted to the league they "sandbagged" in
Let’s say there’s NOLA FC
If we’re in a division with Mobile, Jackson, Shreveport, BR, Memphis, and Katy, they bring good fanbases here via bus and vice versa, and we win it to go to a more national division, where the other teams won’t bring nearly as many fans, they might fold the club rather than be “promoted”. There isn’t that much money in minor league soccer

The franchise fee is like $20m for USL Championship right now. No one is “folding” because away attendance dips when they are promoted.
This is one of the stupidest tales I’ve seen.
