Why? Because you are transitioning between levels. You already lose a star when getting promoted. Keeping stars would not work either, let me explain.
Speaking from level 13 perspective. A 5* player with 81 quality is in my team. Now at level 13, 5* indicates a player with rating 80-84. Now I would get relegated with that player. He would be 5* with the same quality bracket in level 12. Is simply isn't possible to have a 5* player with 80-84 quality in level 12, he would have to be 6*. Do you see what I mean? The player would have to GAIN a star so that it reflects the quality and star ratings of the lower level. That's why they have to gain stars... or lose 5 quality and you know how people would react to that!

Nothing wrong in gaining a star as it reflects reality. Eg if Rooney from Man U drops together with Man U to the lower league, his 5 star ability in upper league has to be reflected correctly as six star in lower league, if not, there is no difference between him and a weaker 5 star lower league player who was already in the lower league. Rooney's relative skills in lower league compared to the players in lower league is much more pronounced there
Nothing wrong with that? There's everything wrong with that, technically speaking one could "tank" for 5 seasons in a row, get relegated 5 times and have a fully 9* team that's wrecking **** in the level. Then when they get promoted, they'll get an easy run in the CL as well.
Now you compare that with someone spending money to get a good team and someone exploiting a relegation system to get a good team.

Notwithstanding that playing for one season in every six would be utterly pointless, that could never be.
Every time you dropped a division/level through relegation your players would gain a star by the proposed system. For your example to work 6*, 7* and 8* teams would have to be relegated first - which is extremely unlikely to happen!
Spot On!!!!!
And, BTW, why r we even discussing this??? As if Nordeus will listen to us and make this change which should require much more of "testing" than the friendly request system If they r taking 2 years to test that, then they will keep testing this relegation system till Apocalypse..........
What if Rooney and ManU WANT to be relegated to lower level league so they could nominate the whole league, CL.. and even CUP (depend on how many level they "down rate" or in another word, how many star they gain)
There will be managers, some one like you or me, instead of trying to build his team stronger, want to play with some one weaker, win titles, get better trophy roomNow I'm talking realistic because tanking isn't good enough )))
