The premise of the thread is that the P5 conferences go to 16. Also, unless the Big 12 completely dissolves, the movement of schools will be from G5 to Big 12 and not the other way around.
Except that in your example you count a 3 team Big 12, supplemented by G5 adds, as a 16 team P5. I don't see it that way.
That's the most realistic way I could see the existing P5 conferences reaching 16 teams. And I wouldn't consider the Big 12/16 a power conference at that point either, just a tweener/tag-along conference the P4 can beat up on.
