We recently had a fuel valve stuck open in the carb after a jet change. This causes the carb to over fill and chokes up the engine which dies when you rev it.
I don't think starting the engine for 10 seconds on the ground with the brake on would detect this.
So you would end up stranded coming off the grid with karts piling into the back of you.
I feel that some(mostly teams)have been irresponsible with frantic stand revving in an attempt to prewarm the engine and the MSA have reacted- Yes stand revving has its dangers but also aids reliable starting.
I aggree with safe areas and the 10 second rule but disagree with the stand rule
