Blame the lawyers ;) 

My understanding of that review system is not just, well, that your proposed changes get reviewed in a formal way, but by registering with that system you also formally give your consent that all your rights on the code go over to Digia, so they can incorporate the changes into their (possibly also closed source) commercial solutions (and off course you confirm that you had the rights in the first place).
