Funny thing, everyone knows the law and you still speed don't you?
Same at contests. Yes the CD plays that you shouldn't score on SR, but ask a judge separately and many will confess (oh I didn't hear that part) or (I know, but that one didn't have a SR and didn't "look" good).
Tom is right, people eat with their eyes.
If the public demands it, and you're selling to them you have two choices:
1) don't put a SR in and watch them stop coming OR
2) add some charcoal and make some $$$$
You can be right or rich, but not both, in the restaurant world.
