To me it's like saying hey, I had no idea what I was doing, and when I got something I didn't want to write, instead of doing us both a favor and defaulting, I plowed through and wrote you something you might not like much, my bad. Enjoy!

ODAO, so they could have just written something without the explanation/justification. I don't think they're being spiteful either, but I would have very little hesitation about rejecting that if I didn't love it. The fact that most paragraphs are one sentence would probably help that along.
