They also created as faithful an adaptation (within a harsh 25 episode constraint) of Toradora! as possible.
I suspect that the outcome of a series has more to do with the major sponsors, as well as the creative staff involved. J.C. Staff has no stake in many of their projects (including Hayate, it seems), so the series planning is often credited to other companies. If Shogakukan/GENCO/etc. mandates a certain style of show, it's everyone's job to stick to those specifications, whether or not it results in the 'ideal' adaptation.
[with GENCO, we often see shifts in teams or studios between seasons of a series, yet the basic adaptation formula remains static]
