No hijacking needed. Olicity fans were and are a very vocal part of the Arrow fandom and the showrunners wanted to cater to them. I'm not implying anything negative here, just saying that The CW cares about buzz and Olicity gave that to them.

and the showrunners wanted to cater to them.

That seems to imply that they only did Olicity to please the fans, and wouldn't have done it otherwise. And I don't agree with that. I think they did Olicity because their original love story (Lauriver) failed and they needed a replacement. Olicity does give them buzz, it's true, and I'm sure the CW loves that. But it would never have happened if Lauriver hadn't failed so badly.

I dont think this is an either/or situation; like I said before, pandering isn't necessarily a negative thing. You basically said it your reply: they needed a love story for Oliver and Olicity became it. So they both filled their story requirement and made a vocal fangroup very happy.
