It seems to me that it's akin to being given some assignment that requires explaining and justifying your stance on a matter quite complex, but while some teachers might require you refine it down to a rather small, coherent, and difficult-to-achieve word limit, one teacher just lets you be as inefficient and ambitious as you like with no word limit whatsoever. That last one is the easiest, though the end result is often something that could have been accomplished with far greater efficiency were stricter limits imposed.
