When the GC's hand was forced and they had to host one of the non structured events, they'd mess up, and they would use the event's poor showing to continue the event's hiatus. This cycle is what lead to the stagnation of the GC team, and was the final weight to break the server's back.
This is why I hope with the new Classic they use an automated system for events BUT allow GC events to be held as well. With this, there would be restrictions on how many times X event could be held. It would allow players to experience all different games. With this system I would ALSO like player hostable events, which would be as official as either event type mentioned above. The prizes for such events would come out of the player's pocket.

Gladius summed it up well. GC's did attempt all the 'underhosted' events you're talking about. The amount of players who join those events is extremely low that make the event not fun/cancelled.
I don't see how an event bot will be beneficial to this problem at all.
Edit: I think we all are forgetting the real problem was the dead value of a ticket.
