It makes more sense than thinking teams will leave the ACC to come to the SEC.

Then why add at all? To be bigger? So we'll add TCU because of what reason? That's why we added aTm, adding TCU is a terrible idea.

This is a very good point. First of all, despite all SEC homerisms, the ACC is no slouch of a conference in football and in basketball. It has great national exposure. It won't cost teams, schools, and alums $20 million to stay in the ACC. The elephant in the room would be obvious - why would some well-established, well-positioned and successful team and school want to leave the ACC to get beaten up in the SEC, probably pushed down the middle of the pack at best, and pay $20 million for that privilege?

Whether Mizzou and TCU, or L'ville would be the next most logical moves for a further expansionist SEC, we'll just have to wait and see. And that's assuming WVU and aTm are both done deals at this point.
