The biggest reason would be the purpose of the forum gateway in the first 
place, which is that some people prefer the forum interface in a community like 
this one.

I know that some of you think that I only want to do this to increase traffic 
to my site and make money.  Anyone that actually knows me would know that this 
is silly for a few reasons.   The first of which is that the site is not a 
money maker.  I know you see a few banners here and there but they barely pay 
the monthly costs on the site and don't really make me any money.  The second 
reason is that I really am a pretty altruistic guy who does this to help the 
backup community.  Finally, the read only method (if I could make it work) 
would get me just as many pageviews without all the hassle.  But oddly enough, 
I believe that the two-way gateway is a good thing if we can just work out our 
differences.
