In terms of things being simplified, SE has made it a conscious effort to peel away complexity in the game ever since ARR, LONG before rotation bots came into play.
The notion that "people would stop cheating if the game was easier" is a weird one. If people are already cheating, why would they stop? They're already doing it, nothing is stopping them from continuing to do it, and they gain no benefit from stopping, so why would they stop?

Honestly, simplifying everything just hurts people who want something more complex, it doesn't really help anyone in the long run. People who want to do the bare minimum would continue to do so, no change to the game would change their mentality, it just ends up blocking off the ceiling for the people who want to improve.
