I was the Managing Editor of a magazine in a previous life, so I'll
vouch for the fussiness. Usually it has to do with the number of
editorial pages per issue and what the publisher thinks will help
support advertising. Sometimes I wasn't allowed to use the best
material, because the publisher claimed he couldn't sell ads against
that kind of editorial. The bottom line in magazine publishing is small
and tenuous. Unfortunately, monetary considerations frequently dictate
editorial in all but the very high end magazines.
