A player might come just to participate, hang out with other players, without aiming to win the tournament. Or, they might be aiming for the top spots, if not the championship itself. In the first case, everything is clear, and it doesn't really matter whether they pass the selection or not. But in the second case, it's pointless to be afraid of the selection, because it will involve players with very low or minimal ratings. In the worst case, if a player is strong but has a low rating and is afraid to play the selection, they can play a few games in the lobby and increase their rating, bypassing the selection zone. (I think around 300 points should be enough to avoid the selection).
