Why should it be required?  There are already so many rules; why
burden developers with more?

This mandatory option goes against the WordPress philosophy of not
having excess options.  Also, WPMU once came with default favicon, and
there wasn't any such option (that I remember).

Perhaps you could recommend that there be a way to change the favicon,
either by option or filter.
