Just to avoid confusion:
Luck scale does affect the chance of getting a good event or a bad event.

After the karma of the event has been determined, Misfortune won't prevent (most) good events from happening and Luck won't prevent (most) bad events from happening, just like Growth can bring immigrants or cause an Ancient Presence to destroy a province and kill most of its population, just as Death can cause a rich prince to die (and you to get his money) or cause a plague.

Furthermore, there are multiple versions of some events. I understand that out of the two otherwise identical plague events, one is Rare and has no scale requirements, other is Common and requires high Death scale. I hope that some of the better events are more common with high Luck.
