I'm hard pressed to understand why Blizzard wouldn't make that change.
Simple, they love PK's and PK's are one of their main consumer demographics. They will never remove PKing, because it would alienate their customers (i.e., antisocial 15 year old boys). In a three word sentence: Blizzard Loves PK's. Memorize it.
Disagree? Then YOU try to come up with a reason why you cannot create "coop only" games, or why both players are not required to click Hostile. There is no such reason. Blizzard has created a game in which people can attack each other with no warning and no responsibility. It annoys me when people say this was somehow accidental. BULL#$%&. Blizzard knows full well that their games cater to PK's. To Blizzard, allowing PKing is a game feature without which a certain target market will not be interested in buying their product.

EDIT: P.S. If you become a PKK, you have become as bad as them. I've said it before, a PKK is nothing but a PK with an excuse.
