If you look at India, we used to have a competitive Div 1 with a moderately active forum (perhaps 10 posts per week in the whole country). Now we have only about 10 active teams and an average of 1 post every other week. I know people who have left largely because our forums died. I don't see how an influx of new users would have any negative impact, even if they become bots. We already have that situation.

I say no. Even though farm teams already happen it could just make it easier for the practice to grow.

Wow, there are really a lot of people who don't want this. I'm quite surprised.

I bet if it was changed to a World/Utopia/Women's/Whatever League, there'd be a lot less resistance.

I don't think so.
I think you would just have different people opposed while having new people in favour

I say no.

After having the second team, people would start thinking of third team and so on...

Let's keep it simple, one team per user.

Should we have the second team, I think we should have a different world to separate these two teams. Just like NBA and D-league.

My friend. You were not reading it attentively.
How helpful for your community will be sudden influx of active forum users, who speak only Russia, Italian or Spanish? This is just a few examples of countries with huge amount of active users who just don't speak any English.

And if you reflect even more on that you may understand that Indian BB community may be so small because you are all using way too much English there when there are hundreds of millions of people who will much more happily use Hindi and some tens of millions who will go for Bengali, Telugu, Tamili and Urdu.

Perhaps. But what objections could there be to a new world? All the systems are already in place, it's just replicating, on a smaller scale, a much smaller scale, what is already here.
