Problem is, you get a lot of forged email - so spam bounces instead to
the sender, to an innocent victim (I get these a lot). It should be
possible to have your MTA bounce only messages for which the return-path
can be verified (SPF, DomainKeys, choose your poison) but until most of
the world implement these it is not much different then no bounces at
all.
