Two things - it takes huge organization to get those leaflets distributed. I've helped with labour mailouts over in Wales, and it has taken a weekend using 20+ volunteers just to get the envelopes stuffed for one mailout to the whole constituency. Independents often just don't have that organization to hand.
Secondly, there are some very good party workers that just don't have the eye for style and presentation or spelling(which I agree can be done cheaply) of other people. Not everyone has the same educational chances, or took advantage of them when they were there. Yes, the parties should probably overview the work, etc.
But I think judging by presentation and style is a mistake, and I don't think, frankly, you can even claim that it is representative.
