Its better than having maybe 2,000 fans (or less) show up for your biggest event of the season.
It isn't like the teams chosen to host are garbage teams. Most are very competitive, if not the best team, in the tournament.
I think it is also hard to judge how different a team may have played if they didn't have the guarantee to the Memorial Cup.
