Having potential relocation markets is a great bargaining chip for teams with financial issues (both to fans and for arena funding). There are still enough teams close enough to the red that removing those bargaining chips might not be best in the long run.
Part of me would love to see another expansion draft though. It's always interesting to see how those go and it has been a long time.

Plus we'd be well positioned in an expansion draft type situation.
