Hey Kusamaxi,
The bot was setup many years ago and was not marketed as a the de-facto solution for validator payouts. It offers some economic relief to those who don't want to manage validator payouts themselves. Validators can also use this as a backup to their own systems.
I think your points related to downtime are overstated and perhaps if you took an empirical approach you may find downtime is not as bad as you're making it out to be. In any case, if you're unsatisfied, you can just operate your own bot/script.
Regards,
Edited
