Because tell me if I'm wrong, but they seem to mention the whole game being downloaded to the SD card.
I assume Nintendo has some security measures to stop people just opening up the SD card, taking out the game data and using it on another system, but is this really going to stop the kind of low lifes who hack Mario Kart's online or pirate games?
So far the 3DS has avoided the issue of 'hacks' and online cheating to much of a degree, but now the games could be available on a standard SD card, doesn't that leave the possibility open for people to figure out how 3DS games work then make the equivalent to an Action Replay or Gameshark for them? And then, could we end up with the infinite Blue Shell and item spam from Mario Kart Wii or Kid Icarus Uprising cheats? Look at what happened back in the DS and Wii days to games like Metroid Prime Hunters, do we really want the same to happen to Kid Icarus Uprising and Mario Kart 7?
How will Nintendo stop these problems from occurring?
