The things you own could outlast the server. Let's say WOW shuts down, but they allow private servers, you'd essentially need to start from scratch for each server you join unless they somehow got a dump of the official databases (not happening). Your stuff could live as long as enough peers exist to verify it.
All the more reason for companies not to do it. WOW has no interest in supporting your use of a private server.
I'm not saying WOW would, just that a game like WOW could be designed that supports private servers. So maybe they intend to make money from the initial sale and want players to keep things they earn or trade for in game.
I think it would be a novel approach to an MP game.
