I think a separate event at a venue on different continent was proposed primarily to avoid "annual GitTogether always at Mountain View" that has been unfriendly to our European friends (mitigated somewhat by having it immediately after GSoC mentor summit). I agree it may be a better solution to that issue to move the two things to the same venue that moves from year to year. The kernel folks have the (by invitation only) Kernel Summit immediately before the wider end user conference at the same place, which used to be always Ottawa but the venue moves around from year to year these days. That is something we could learn from them.
