Like I said, it doesn't bother me as I'll always opt for the HD release, but I do think it's a little foolish to not consider DVD only buyers. I believe they have said in the past that DVD sales were poor, so it's not a smart move financially to release dual format or separate editions.
I've only today ordered the US releases of Scalps and Slaughterhouse because i wouldn't get to see them otherwise. Still they are both fully loaded editions and the two cost around a tenner delivered.

Basically if i'm an exception to the rule then all well and good, but if 88 releasing these blu's only advertises the films as such then yeah they will miss out... if that makes sense.
