Look, as I say every time someone starts one of these threads, NEP has promotion and relegation. Don't believe me? Check to see who's in a division over time. You'll see that teams that do poorly drop out and teams that do quite well move up.
What NEP doesn't have is a requirement to promote or relegate a fixed number of teams. If it doesn't make sense to promote anyone, fine. If it makes sense to promote two teams and relegate two others, fine. And this helps to avoid the win-at-all-cost mentality that can otherwise apply when a team's promotion, or avoiding relegation, depends on the outcome of a given game.
