You are forgetting that people might already have a database server in place. 
Since MySQL and PostgreSQL are both free software, not supporting them both 
"by design" will make some people unhappy (esp. since it a feature regression 
from 1.4). People won't switch database servers for Amarok and it is more 
likely they will dump Amarok. On the other hand, you don't have to implement 
something you are not interested in, just don't close the doors for somebody 
to come and do it.
