What about facilitating the learning curve? I agree authors should strive to
make their parts perfect, as only perfect ones will become official.
However, one of the joys of the task is to share the work and receive
feedback. If you expect perfect pieces only, you will be discarding
potential talent.

Which is not necessarily bad - every model maker has a drawer full of odd,
unfinished, might-be-useful-later bits and ends. By extension, I would guess
that a lot of part makers have them too. Sharing them sounds beneficial for
a host of different reasons. Among them: allowing the possibility of
finishing up some one else's discarded work; using early mock ups in Ldraw
models that absolutely need them or diminishing the chance of parallel work
on the same piece by 2 different folks.

This is reasonable. Deposits or link lists are not that different to the
end-user.
Hope it helps,
