I would prefer to keep the ArbCom at its current size (or close to it)
and establish lower courts to filter off the relatively easy stuff and
to organize the cases into a form so that when they do appeal the
ArbCom doesn't have to waste as much time marshalling the case.

A few Arbitration Assistants would not be remiss, either.
