True Hdmi is getting locked down by drm but they see component as evil because it does not have control so boxes that have hdmi have the ability to disable or limit the resolution of the component outputs. I am not sure about non hd boxes having hdmi ports or not but in a couple of years it may be that hd boxes will be the only thing available.
fishing cables can be a real pia. So they to future proof.
