Uluru is a premium destination, not a bulk tourism place. More tourists would actually ruin the place (even more).

While I see what you are saying I disagree that more tourists would ruin the place.
Numbers are down and the resort is up for sale. It is getting tired to say the least. Voyages would attract more people by making it cheaper and I am sure more money would be made in the process. HTI is a great example. It was in dire straits. Initially everyone complained that JQ made the island 'common'. The low cost carriers have helped turn the island around through increased numbers. I believe the same could be achieved with Ayers Rock.
I also believe it almost unpatriotic that far more Aussies have been to Phuket or Bali than Uluru. We should all be required to go to Uluru at some point.
Amazing does not begin to describe.
