The original design of the DS had no backward compatability. It has GBA compatability out of hardware convenience. To give it anything more would drive up hardware prices (you'd need a GBC chip crammed in there), and the cost would be deferred to the consumer.

As an owner of every incarnation of the Game Boy since the original, I much prefer their final decision on the matter. I don't see how anybody with a GBA would feel otherwise.
