Just because a stadium has more seats doesn't mean it's better. By this line of thinking we would conclude that May Day Stadium in North Korea is one of the best stadium in the world.

I think BMO has quite a bit on Commonwealth. The
Bid Book did a decent job of breaking down the issues with Commonwealth, a lot of them stemming from accessibility, washrooms, concourses, and other quality-of-life issues that require renovation.
Stadiums like McMahon are far more off the deep end than Commonwealth but we absolutely
must get out of this line of thinking that more seats makes a stadium better. They don't.
