There is no logical reason to schedule that far in advance. There are way to many variables that can change so you will still be making change after change during the current season anyway and for what?
So you can lock up the "top" officials who may not be the "top" dogs next year, much less 3 years from now. It's stupid, it screams of the good old boy system, it discourages promising young officials, it will lead to a lack of mentoring younger officials, and closes the door on worthy officials that move into the area.
