It does have the benefit that every team will go into the last match day of having at least a mathematical chance of qualifying as teams a number of teams will qualify from 3rd place. It does have the disadvantage of having teams in later groups knowing results of earlier games and potentially being able 'fix' their games accordingly. Every as system has its flaws, but I feel they should've just left it at 32 as it has the least and ensures only quality teams will qualify for the final tournament.

What would be the incentive for hosting if your country doesn't qualify?

Are you asking me to elaborate/defend /u/sonofahuramazda stupid comment for him?

I literally just asked him to explain his point. Learn to read. Comprehension is important. English class matters.
