Being a huge pain in the ass probably does filter out a lot of trivial malware that doesn’t have the resources to jump though these hoops, especially when it might only last a week or so before they get shut down and have to start again.
If you've covered the personal frustration angle, I'll point to how it also changes the financial odds of turning a profit with malware. ~$700 USD for a week (before getting discovered) means you better turn a profit fast - and if you can't, there's not much point getting that full storage scope
