To claim an eligible title you have to take a picture of your name written onto the book's copyright page
Ah, so I have to deface my books and take two pictures (one of the copyright page, one of the cover)? No thanks.
What crucial plot point did Tom Bombodil advance
He emphasised how parochial the Hobbits' world view was and he gave them the weapons that they'd carry for the rest of the book. The choice of the weapons and his explanation helped establish the individual characters of the hobbits.
I agreed with his decision to trim unnecessary storyline fat, and focus more on action.
In the first movie, the storyline is basically 'run, fight, run fight, run fight'. Anything that might be considered character development is cut. The novels have a lot of description and this is turned in the films into very slow shots of impressive visuals, which could equally be backdrop while things that actually advance the plot take place. Instead, Jackson focusses on impressive scenes of New Zealand and long tech demos for the Massive Engine. Plot takes very much a back seat.
You can add a petty subjective clause if you want to...
I don't consider code quality to be a petty thing.
