The con to this would be that teams would just be calling up players with what is currently no spots to put them in.

Well no, because they could still choose to pay. Think of it as a development fee. 

Or they could trade them to another team, who actually can accommodate them.

See, and all of this leads back to what? The E-word itself. 

But it doesn't though. Just because team A can't accommodate a player doesn't mean team B, C, or D can't.

I don't see how you go from "some teams will have to either pay to stash their prospects in the DSFL, or trade them to other teams" to "this obviously means we need expansion" tbh.

I probably replied to the wrong post in that, but my reply was just to your overall argument, essentially, not just that last point.
