I used to think that too and I've never de-clawed one of my cats. It causes the cat some pain for a few days and if they get outside it reduces their ability to get away from danger.

On the other hand some people will not own a cat with claws and I figure losing their first toe joint is better than being killed in a shelter.

I figure if they will give the cat a good home, and never let it out of the house, I'll forgive them for the de-clawing.
