I think the dumbest thing about having tiers on such lists is that if you go back and look at any old top prospects list, you'll realize that a lot of guys are interchangeable, especially after the first few spots. Furthermore, some guys will be lower simply because they're younger and not as proven yet, so inevitably they will climb. So putting prospects, who have such a malleable quality to them, into tiers this way just seems needlessly rigid.
As opposed to what, just having a numbered list? The point of tiers is to highlight how malleable these lists actually are.
