Funny thing about all this is that a large part of the PC owners still uses WinXP and we all know WinXP won't go any higher than DirectX 9. Even though many gamers have bad-ass graphic cards that supports DirectX 10/11 they still use WinXP. Might be ONE of quite a few reasons why they choose to have the game scalable. If you make the game DirectX 10/11 only then maybe many potential customers might be lost.
