Because EA is trying to push their own products. Steam has their own problems, and your reasoning doesn't make sense.

Matt: It makes sense especially if you look into BF2. The BF2 servers were never released to the public in an attempt to curb any attempt of artificially inflating one's stats.

DandyAndy said he could make a BF3 server off of his box because he knows the owners of the GSP he rents his box from.

Anyways, I highly doubt a non-ranked server would be very popular among anyone that had bought the game legally. Yes, it sucks but half the appeal of the multiplayer in BF3 is the ability to advance one's rank and guns.
