That's another thing, I never understood why dividing the cigar into thirds was the best for reviewing. Why not halves, or fourths? Is it just arbitrary?

For me, this is the best way to divide up the cigar, imho. Halves are a bit too large to review, and quarters seem too small, especially when the cigar sometimes balances out in the first quarter. *Most* (and this means the most that I have seen) use the thirds-method.
