Because "support that behavior" is undermining true social interaction. Just because we technologically can doesn't mean we technologically should. But that is a matter of opinion. As people with strong technology backgrounds we are usually the first to say that it is the answer to some daily pain or a solution to a problem. But technology can't replace everything - and true face-to-face interpersonal relationships I believe is one of them. "Moving into devices" is a real-world cop-out. We tune into Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, and HN to a degree more than we should and that becomes our reality more than the real world. If we started i-chatting with people we could, with less mental effort, talk to like humans have been for thousands of years we may actually learn something we didn't search for.
