I'm not asking about free trips for the top 8 from 2002 worlds, just wondering if they would be invited so they could attend if they wanted to defend their titles, paid for themselves. Anyone know?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but when Worlds 02' rolled around, WotC wasn't even giving 15+ recognition as an official age group, whereas 10- and 11-14 were "official", and therefore wielded "offcial" champions, which is why you get no invite.
As for Psycodad, he's only the 2003 United States Professor Champion, not a World Champion. Granted there technically was no 2003 World Champion, but he's still just a US Champion.
Yeah, I agree with you that it's unfair, but those are the technicalities, apparently only free trips have gone to "official reigning World Champions"
