It's a rule thing. Like not eating pork or shellfish, but less tangible and comprehensible than a dietary restriction.

Not depicting people with representative art is a thing that isn't universally embraced in Islam or by every Muslim. But similarly there's going to be some person out there who feels as strongly about it as they would if someone intentionally snuck pork into their food.
