I don't want to speak for halx or anyone else, but I think it's safe to say that they'd rather have 31,000 peopleposting and discussion matters they find significant in these forums than 700 people having these discussions and 30,000 looking for pr0n.
Sure, the bandwidth would be higher, but it would be a bigger community, and thus more people donating.
