Subject: "Next Rounds" in tournaments

Here is an extreme case, to make a point. Here is a tournament with 103 participants:

As you can see, all of the next round semifinalists have been determined.

There is only ONE GAME REMAINING, and neither player can advance, as shown here:

I think a great feature would be the starting of the next round when it is mathematically impossible for any of the active games to alter the outcome of the event.

It is easier said than done, but why hold up 18 semifinalists becaue of 1 game that does not matter?
