Mod Checksum - why check the graphics?

Why does Sins not just check the gameplay files?

Just wondering what the purpose is with Sins checksum including graphic files... I can understand the gameplay, don't want people to have different gameplay online/lan but why check the textures, particles, and mesh?  What does it matter if I have cool graphics from Bailknights graphic Mod and my opponent doesn't?  Could this be addressed?  If it doesn't change gameplay, it shouldn't matter.   :(

Does it not also include game data?
