There in no way should be a change in total that results in most chapters doing COB.

There are two ways of looking at this. If total is set artificially low and some chapters are much larger than total, making it impossible for the smaller groups to EVER catch up because they are capped by total, then you have to raise total to give them a chance to make up that difference. Each FR cycle it just gets worse.
Raising total too high that makes it prohibitive for chapters to ever reach and all they do is COB all the time is not the goal. But...a chapter should not argue that they don't want to have to COB to keep from raising Total if it helps the smaller chapters that need to be able to grow. It becomes very noticeable over time that XYZ is half as big as ABC even though XYZ is at total.
