Nelson-

OK, I’ll bite: Why would you need to keep ideas submitted to TLC on behalf of the community secret from the community?

Nelson’s reply is good, but it should also be said that it mainly isn’t to keep secret from the community, but to keep secret from rival companies. If TLG’s plans are made known before they are ready to act, other companies could rush a product out to steal TLG’s thunder and sales.

Regarding secret from the community - that does happen, but to a lesser extent. An example would be how many in the castle community were upset that the Viking sets were redesigned before final release.

Lastly, as Tim notes, terrorism is always a factor.
