The SUIP went with a different model this year, giving the WCWS umpires a week (well 10 days) to recover, make travel arrangements, clothing orders, etc. If they had worked a super regional, some of them would have arrived home on Sunday or Monday, then arrive in OKC on Wednesday.
I suspect this will be the model of the future.
