There are also some times when you want to host an offline channel. For example if your stream is ending and you want to host someone who is scheduled to stream after you but might be starting late, or you’re ending early, you might want to pre-emptively host that channel while he is offline and know that when he is online the hosting will all be set already.
With this new feature you would have to wait around until the target channel is online, or else it would just unhost after 1 min.
Don’t get me wrong this is a great feature, and one many bots already do as it is so simple to do, but it shouldn’t take control away from the broadcaster, it should provide an option of letting the broadcaster/editors manage all hosting/unhosting if that is what they want.
