Base Clear Urethane - nothing but!!

I don't understand how the sticklers for orig can suggest Base clear instead of lacquer. Are points deducted for base clear in judging or are points added for lacquer ? I feel that if you have two identical cars with one being base clear and the other being lacquer, the lacquer should score higher. A supercar restored to the highest standard barely sees much road time or sunlight and I have seen lacquer that still looks stunning years later.
