There isn't a giant, scary, flashing "NO REVISIONS" sign, however. There is a note in the middle of the section explanation saying that they won't accept revisions on that section. It only seems like such a big deal because everyone here is making it a big deal about it.
Either way, if you want something then you should be willing to do at least a little for it, whether it's for school or just for fun. A little more care in writing an app, with the opportunity to have that app beta-tested, means that the mods have a much easier workload and everyone gets in quicker. It's not that big a deal, and it is meant to help applicants.
Really, the only reason people here apparently need the reasons explained to them is because it's a new thing and they want to know why. A new apper will most likely just see the rules and accept them, and if they actually pay that much attention to the "no revisions" note to think it's so harsh that they don't want to apply at all, then they don't have to.
