The "OPEN!" callouts might well end up being a downer for the person who has picked up a sealed toy to keep sealed. It's not really nice to have your acquisition dumped on by others.
Very well said, I agree 100%. Although MISB is not my thing (although, if finances allowed, I would make it my thing), I have the utmost respect for those that can resist the temptation to open, and proudly display the figure in sealed card/box art glory =o) You could compare it to MISB collectors demanding you to NOT open yours... Which is something you'd rather not do ofcourse, so really it's an "each to their own" thing, and pressuring others against their will just isn't what it's all about.
