Other T206 players were from the deep south, not in the numbers of the Northern and Midwest players, but they are there. Nap Rucker was born and played his minor league career in Georgia and he has two cards in the set.
I think speculating about JJ being snubbed because of bias or any other reason is over complicating a simple explanation. As I've stated before he could not be included in the T206 set because of when and where he played in relation to when and where they chose their images for the set. And without a T206 image he would not be included in a large number of other sets.
