I feel like HD remake of PS2 titles is kind of done. But if PS4 was BC with PS2 Sony could put basically the whole PS2 library (or at least the good games) on PSN and right there you have a reason to buy a PS4 to replace your PS3 even if the actual PS4 library doesn't have much to offer you.
Sure with PS Now you will be able to stream some PS2 games without having to have built in BC. But it takes time and effor to convert a game to play via internet streaming, I assume, and how long will it be before a substantial number of PS2 games are on PS Now? It takes bugger all effort to plonk a game on PSN for normal old downloading. And then you have the people who still have a PS2 collection who like to play from time to time, and PS2 BC on PS4 would mean only needing 2 consoles in the house to be able to play all 4 generations of Playstation home console games.
PS4 must have sufficient processing power to be able to emulate PS2 without any problem.

Wait, PS3 was backward compaitible with PS1. No joke I didn't even know that and I had one.

Seriously? You never tried it once? Damn, LOL.
