Criteria for the Interior Design Contest?

Not to derail the discussion, but I've always been puzzled at what the point of the 'can't edit your house' rule was in the first place. I mean, I highly doubt it was just meant to be some kind of arbitrary test of discipline for people who like to decorate a lot or something. I assume the screenshots are what are being evaluated and those are locked in at the time of submission, like sure you can put in 4.4 furniture later, but it isn't going to improve your chances.

There must be some kind of practical reason for it. Like perhaps they wanted to be able to see it in person to check if something wasn't photoshopped, or if an entry was particularly good they wanted to go in and grab extra pictures for media use or something. I don't know though, none of the reasons I can think of sound very compelling, anyone care to venture a guess?
