I honestly don't really think that's a problem. Russia is over 7 million km2 bigger than the US, but they resolved it by making all but 1 of the stadiums in Europe.

If people had no issue I'd be fine with the United States going "all host sites will be in the East this time, when we bid again in 30-40 years all host sites will be in the west" but I doubt that would go over well.

Russia is heavily distributed to its Western quarter.  The United States is more equally distributed from west to east as people spread out over the past century.

 

 

I don't really think it's an issue, though. They could just have one bracket play in the west while the other plays in the east.
