I'm sure there are good arguments from both sides of the fence as far as whether a pricing should or not be published. However, it should be noted that many collectors, especially beginners, look to a price guide for pricing guidance and they would be dissapointed if there was no attempt at pricing.
On a site note: The first time I read the book values for these cards was when I looked at the linked article just now. So I can testify that I am one collector who was not influence by the price guide prices.
