Maybe,

16 kids in 6A in each weight class represent the 32 largest schools in Kansas who represent thousands of enrolled students. In 5A it takes more schools to create the same enrolled student base, 4A more schools yet, and a bunch in 3A.

In your proposal the next 16 largest schools are added to the already existing 6A schools to make class I. Now how many more thousand students will be represented by just 16 kids.

Then of course the following Class II, III, and IV in your proposal would have 16 kids per weight class in their state tournaments representing much smaller numbers in student enrollment instead of nearly equal numbers as it is now.
