Pretty the only reason why as to both is probably due to the sheer amount of resources required for both of those events. I'm personally not a fan because it puts more attention on games not made by Square-Enix (and also because that Garo gear is ugly as sin), but I can understand that with all the work involved to make them happen that they would want to make them permanent.
