I don't get it either. It's just an assumption for ease of "study".
We make such assumptions in science all the time, but then we test our models to see if we have over-simplified. In this case, there's no testing going on so there's no way to tell whether the assumption is reasonable or not. It's all just part of exploring an imaginary abstract world, with no guarantee it has any relationship with reality.
