is the correct answer
seeded qualification with the top nations having to play fewer games against the minnows/getting byes
=> more opportunities to arrange lucrative friendlies against 'equal' nations instead of forced games against Lichtenstein or Moldova.
=> probably fewer international games overall for top nations meaning more rest for players at the top clubs
