This league redistribution is only because of mmr decay. Instead of the size of the lower league slowly getting smaller and the higher leagues getting bigger as more people get promoted and sit there, the players lose mmr and get demoted. Basically all the "active" gold, platinum and diamond players are all still in their respective league. However the people who merely coasted in their league and didn't play now get demoted and this therefore artificially inflates bronze and silver with inactive "better" players. This doesn't mean that wow gold is so much better than silver now, it means that the active gold players are the only gold players, which means the average skill level of a gold player is no longer inactive players whose maximum skill up to this point was gold but rather active gold players who are currently gold level.
BSG is the same, its just now the G is only the active golds and inactive plat/diamonds. As far as I'm concerned, no change is warranted. If the same basic entry requirements are monitored, in that if they were plat last season they can't play BSG, then there should be no issue.
