    17 or 18 only puts you on the road with same pairing

    Yes, thus my point is that there is NO advantage to being 17/18...those are the worst slots because you probably go on the road and then still get 1 or seed seed in the round of 16 if you survive.
    19 or 20 seed has a tougher round of 32 vs 13/14, but then you get a slight break of 3/4 in the round of 16.
    For me you just want the higher seed and stay home for early rounds. Best scenario is win out and maybe climb into a 13/14 slot
