Let's say we buy the same traffic source, as available naturally, without touch the affiliate, is that so bad? Also, the affiliate may notice himself who is the next advertiser in his spot...

Have your own program and you'll learn that more than 50% of the new affiliates are cheaters in a way or another (carders for PPS, fake signups in CPA programs etc.) and this is taking a lot of time to check, find and bust before you lose lots of money paying them - also answering incredibly noob or trollish questions from them. This includes: "Sir I wish to make money with your program can you suggest me a method, please teach me" lol.
On the long run it is worth, because lots of good longstanding affiliates are there bringing relevant traffic, but at the start it takes more time than media buying.
