But it does for Barnes & Noble, and all of the "I can't buy a Nook because all my books are on Kindle" folks would no longer be able to use that excuse. For those of us who liberate our books and convert back and forth between mobi and epub, it doesn't really matter.
Edit: Also, Nook supports regular Adobe DRM as well as their own version, so you can buy books from other stores (Kobo, Sony, etc) and get them from Overdrive-backed libraries. Can't do that with a Kindle, without liberating those books anyway.
