Yes it ruins everyone's fun, and yes it messes up the contest, but I have seen many injuries at non-contest powwows and if the dancing doesn't stop, it is very difficult for emergency personel to attend to the injured party. Someone else's well being is worth more to me than the joy of watching the dance. I feel the same way on contests, but I have never contested, so maybe there are other opinions.

I can understand how it would be problematic, but I think everyone can agree that if it were them, they'd want "center stage" for just a few moments.
