大全833，明显wordy，为什么不能省略？

833。 The Supreme Court’s concern with legitimacy is not for the sake of the court but the nation to which it is responsible.

        (A) but the nation to which it is responsible

(B) but for the sake of the nation to which it is responsible

(C) so much as the nation it is responsible to

(D) as the nation it is responsible to（B）

(E) but the nation

答案是B，确实很平衡，但GMAT不是很讲求简洁吗？我选了A，觉得for the sake of在but 之后被省略掉了，显得更加简洁啊。。。

之前有人问过这题，但没有结论。

向NN求教～～～

but for (the sake) 或(that)  of the nation to which it is responsible 2个中总要有一个啊, 什么都没有意思就不对啊

可是省略了仍然可以平行啊，GMAT中有许多这样的例子啊。。。
