...most things have some kind of reason, even if the reason isn't one that we're easily able to understand, or even if they're arbitary.
I don't think it would hurt to understand why the people who were giving the instructions for this Game felt that it needed to be done the way it was. If we can understand their mindsets and their motivations, we can better predict what else they might throw at us, and prepare for it.
I was told it was strange that this one didn't seem to have anything put in place, initially. Supposedly. But since we were so clearly ready to defy the rules, they intervened.
