If you want to be fair to the individual participants you have to optimize in

where X= approx Y= approx Z the closest optimum? (or finding one place that
sucks equally for everybody)
I agree with this finding.
Am I missing something?
If you do, then I do as well.

Also big corporations do have limited budget for IETF participation, so this
would I claim be valid also for other participants. Although limited budget is
a different thing than the non-negotiable situation of "do not have the money
at all".
