Should remain with 12 a side. It's gonna be a logistical nightmare for all involved with more volunteers etc required.

There are a whole range of issues why it shouldn't have changed in the first place, and I think the SFL are now realising it with the nightmare of a draw/logistics of having all these teams.
Imagine and under 10 player going from modified rules on a small ground with 12 a side (after playing u8's @ 9 a side) and then coming into u12's with a full oval, 18 a side and full on tackling/bumping? I can see a massive drop off at this level in coming years.

The Saturday finals series for U14 thru to A grade must fully align so regardless of how many teams are in the junior grades, the Final 8 should stay consistent with the A and B grade.
A final 5 requires consists of 6 finals spread over 4 weeks whereas a final 8 is 9 finals over 8 weeks. 3 A and B grade finals without junior finals to curtain raise would take atmosphere away - but more importantly to the SFL - would cause a reduction in gate takings.

Only reason I can think of is they are trying to keep the older kids together to give them momentum into the 14's next year. What concerns me is the younger team have no big bodies to help the little ones out, not a huge issue but a bit strange.
