I don't think any developers really want to force a Dx11 requirement now. I doubt many even want to force a Dx10 requirement. One of the reasons for WoW's success is that it can be run on so many computers. It's obvious that the devs here are trying to emulate as many of WoW's successful elements as possible.
I would not care about the DX version if they could support Anti Aliasing in DX9. But as we now know, based on the fact that they are using Deferred Shading, we can't use Anti Aliasing unless they support DX10.
Edges look like junk right now and it really detracts from the beauty of the game.
