Is there any reason to polish preps other than to make them pretty to photograph? How polished do they need to be? What is the rationale?

Unless they're grossly rough, labs don't really need them really smooth.

How rough is too rough? Any maximum grit recommendation that should not be exceeded for a final prep?

Nothing standard.
I imagine that something die varnish cannot smooth off is too rough, but I don't know if we have anything that coarse.
