it seems to me to be a good optionally feature to have for those who want it, if it's good enough for a tablet and mobile phone etc then why not an e-reader as well.

Most people don't have a problem with the fact that some people want a PIN. However, many have pointed out that some of the reasons provided as to why they want it are flat out wrong and are misleading to others who may read it. And also people are pointing out the reasons why it is has not likely a
priority (since they appear to have started to play with it) for Kobo to spend the money (developer time, support etc) to include it. There are lots of things I might like included, but if it's only me and 100 other people want it, that's not enough for them to spend a lot of time on it.
And the vast majority of people have WAY more personal/identifiable/nefariously usable information on their phone and/or tablet than their ereader so it is a high priority item for MOST (not just a few) people on phones/tablets.
