Probably because it was easier to leave the feature in since it didn't do anything than remove it and have to do more bug fixing? That'a a possible explanation anyway.
I know Sony have said in the past that they will not release PS2 games on the PSN for the PS3 so I don't expect them to do it. Especially since the GOW collection shows they can repackage games in HD and make more money off of them, not to mention they're still supporting the PS2. Seeing as how the PS2 still sells well and makes a fair bit of profit on everything, I'm not so sure they'll want to undermine that in the near future.
