The point is to clarify a point of potential confusion, and provide somewhat of standard terminology.

That being said, the lack of enforcement is just status quo for many things. Remember, nobody's able to say--for sure--that you actually did lock the robot up in its bag when the form says you did! (Unless, of course, you are so foolish as to bag the robot in the parking lot of your event. In that case, ye be right out of luck.)
