I'm not sure I would want Twitter/FB/G+/et al updates via my RSS reader, and I certainly wouldn't want to have to sort through all the stuff on the social networks to get good longform content (or pictures of baby animals). Different platforms have different strengths, and I'd hate to see the utility of one diluted to chase another.
