it might take a year or so, but i think you will see the sites with a lot of forum,blog comment, and bm links will pushed down 5 pages and out..
trust me, i hate to see it happen... like you said, if you know how to use it, its an amazing tool..

Using your logic, where does google expect to get links from then? Facebook and twitter? Link exchanges? What? It's kind of hard for them. Granted they can make an algorithm that can figure out whether a comment is spam or not, but that still wouldn't defeat the purpose of SB. It'd kill probably 80% of it's main users but still doesn't kill it's best feature.
But time will only tell like you said. Personally, I think they are only "trying" to make improvements for PR. Many of the people they would be hurting are helping them with adwords
It's always interesting to hear someone else's opinion though
