The purposeful loss slows the bots, but since you still have to win the event to continue on, the idea is to win by as little as possible so as not to increase the bot difficulty.

It doesn't do any good to work to slow the bots and then go out and win by a huge margin, those would effectively cancel each other out.

Think of it as if the game doesn't know who you are. If you struggle on an event, the game will adjust the difficulty to make it easier for you to succceed (to a point). Alternatively, if you continually beat goals by a large margin, then the game increases the difficulty to make it more challenging for you.
