What would stop a poker site from creating it's own 'bots' that succeed in a 'just under the radar but better than average' amount?

The same thing that would stop a person with a picture-perfect counterfeiting machine from trying to print a 101-dollar bill.

Not true. A 101 bill would not slide under the radar.

You missed the point of that analogy - I was comparing the managers of an online poker site, a veritable cash cow, who decide to milk a teeny tiny bit more money out of it by having bots play on their site with a counterfeiter who is able to print as much money as he wants trying to milk a teeny tiny bit extra out of each printing. In both cases, the extra effort makes no sense whatsoever.
