This heavily biases the event to stay in the same area.
Another organization that I am part of (worldcon.org) has an exclusion
zone (currently 500 miles) to avoid having the local attendees vote to
keep it in the same place all the time. They also have a voting fee
so only people actually interested vote. (That includes a supporting
membership in the voted for convention, and is the cheapest way to
continue attending regularly for those that plan years in advance.)

With Microsoft, failure is not an option. It is a standard feature.
