Thinking that keeping it at just 16 episodes will give the writers more reason to tighten up on the story-lines. Often times with the typical 20 or more episode seasons you get a filler episode that does nothing to move the story along.

True; with a smaller season it forces the writers to get in their major story arcs without too much fluff. With the series starting to veer farther away from the source comics I wonder if they will start adding more filler since they don't have to follow a general guideline anymore or if they will keep it tight.
I think it's the tightness and focus that keeps this show popular, if they start watering it down over more episodes, I think it'll lose some of that appeal, to be honest.
