I really don't like Blizzard caving on this issue. It sets a bad precedent.
They are actually reverting to a previous precedent. For The Burning Crusade, they did do not do this reset so people assumed they would not do so for WotLK and began mindlessly farming honor/marks. As I no longer PVP, it doesn't really matter to me, but I think people that were hording honor/marks had a reasonable expectation of being able to use them at 80 based on how this was handled last expansion.

Edit: Quote from blue post: "many players would still be surprised by an Honor and token reset as it isn’t something we’ve done in the past."
There was really no point in doing an honor reset at that point, The Spendable Honor Point System was introduced a few weeks before in the TBC patch so it wasn't as big of an issue as it is now. Resetting honor and marks was in my opinion a good start for a new expansion.
