As I recall, it was always a controversial choice to include it. The JTA showed that there was some interest but it wasn't universal. My own personal reasons for not hating it in the objectives is that I've seen a few times where "management" want to get reports out of a DB and they turn to the techs to help them with that task. in particular, having Excel/*Office connecting to the DB and then trying to figure out some simple queries.
