Remember the current format is new to this year. It has not been fully tested to see what happens after a cycle. If Kanade had won the crown last year as expected, she would be in Stella by default and not interfering with Nova results. Not that a single top character can shift everyone that much.
This isn't even as change vs ststus quo argument. This is a "if you are going to change things, at least let the changes be tested before you decide to change them again" argument.
What is the point of having a system if you change it every year without seeing if the results work for all the changes? It was pretty flat out obvious that the high tier 2011 girls would dominate Nova. That was expected unless some other show came up to challenge them (Madoka was the suggested counter at the time). But since these girls had already gone against the likes of Shana they have a fanbase advantage the 2012 girls won't have. But come 2013, the 2012 girls will not be at as much a disadvantage, if they have worth. If they are not worthy they still will not make it past Nomination and the Preliminaries for those 36 slots. Have some faith in what has been crafted but not fully tested.
There will always be girls on the bottom of the list. But the list is only 36 long.
