I agree to some extent, a biannual event is an eventuality we have to consider. But would making it biannual have any effect on the quality of the bids, the benefit of having such a diverse community implies that the two teams hosting consecutive events might not be affected by each other at all. The bids might not improve even if the event became biannual. The bidding process lasts for months, the planning stage probably even longer, awarding more time to a bidding team might not improve the quality of the bids. The biggest benefit I would assume, would be providing a team that has already won the bid, more time to prepare for the event.
Not if you make it so that there is explicit room and support for regional events in the meantime, allowing teams to gather experience for a bigger, more international event.
