What are the reasons behind writing a critique of a dmod?

To make the author aware of the good and bad stuff so he can improve.

Does a reviewer need to have made a dmod so s/he will know the difficulty of making one before s/he writes a review?

No, ofcourse not.

Do reviews, good and bad, encourage or discourage new dmod authors?

I'd say a good review encourages, ie when a reviewer says what can be improved and such. Bad reviews like "this game sucks I hate everything about it but there were no bugs so I still give it a 4" discourage authors, I think.

How far should a reviewer go in critising a review?

As far as he thinks is needed.

Is the dmod author responsible for his finished product?

Don't really understand the question, I think.
