We need BASIC because everyone knows that it isn't a real OS without one. Heck even MS was forced to include qbasic in Win95 so it could be accepted as a real OS.
Just kidding - but really, if someone wants to create a BASIC for Linux why not? If you don't want to use it, then use a different scripting langague (hmmmm, isn't this what we say about Linux GUI Desktops, Linux Window Managers, Linux Printing, etc.?).
