I think a co-pay would be be reasonable.    If I human manually did a
refund I'm sure the process could ne 'fixed'.  It would be interesting
to know how many people, based on paste events this would impact.  I
agree in that I as well suspect its a very low number.

Two comments here:

In the past a human would review and refund speakers if they paid.

A nominal co-pay may be appropriate, even if it's just $10. Students qualify for lower rates last I recall as well. 
We are talking about a small number of people here, at most 1-2 per conference I suspect based on historical chats.

cases, how ever you want to define it, there is no revenue loss here
as they would be unlikely so spend $ to attend anyway if they had to
pay.
