Because they are too good (literally) since they have to place between 3-5th, which is highly unlikely with the team's strength atm

Exactly, but USA and Canada can still qualify even though they're far ahead of the competition. I guess they want do give opportunities for other South American nations that won't go to the Olympics.

Both declined last time due to the World Cup, but there is a bit of a gap from WC to PAG next year so maybe both will play

Because it's a Conmebol decision. Concacaf doesn't have to do the same. 

 

My guess of why they do it: south american women teams have so little continental competition (just a copa america every 4 years lmao) that they don't want to leave so many teams without doing anything for such long period. 

 

Brazil doesn't need it since they will always play the olympics and world cup. They want to throw a bone to the teams below.

 qualifies in each event as hosts, + best non qualified athlete at Asuncion 2022.

qualifies for the men's volleyball tournament. Which means either  and/or will not qualify.

Taekwondo sees a slight cut to its quotas (I believe first Olympic sport to see a reduction from 2019).

Pretty big, considering Toronto and Lima used Atos

Bornan has landed some big agreements lately. I believe they’re handling the next few events for Panam Sports, Centro Caribe Sports, and the OCA. 
 

Atos has been mostly absent from this cycle. They did the last two results systems for the Olympics, but I don’t know if they’ve landed any events outside of that yet.
