Very interesting question. I like it.

An architect friend was telling me about a city that wanted a nice Senior Recreational Center. So his company got together and came up with several ideas. The company even went so far to build a foam board model and drawings.

So when the time came, his company submitted their idea along with four other firms. This is done ALL THE TIME.

As someone said, it is a test. E.g. Our landing page has x,y,z features. Convince me why you feel a,b,c features are better. Also, show me yr creative side.

I hate to say it but it seems like a fair question.
