Is it better to enter an event where you would place 6th out of 8 entrants, or one where you would place 14th out of 23?

What is your objective for this meet?
Is it a season-ending championship where you want to see the culmination of your training?
Is it a team focus meet? Is your team needing a couple of points from your swim?
Is it time to get past a stale spot and try events you haven't swum for a while or have never tried?
Psych sheets do just that = psyche you up or psyche you out.
Being seeded x out of y doesn't mean that's how you'll finish. Seed times don't match performances, people scratch/DQ, deck entries, etc. That's why we have to actually swim! :)
