You're missing something.

If people like 10-man raiding is better than 25-man raiding (except for the loot), why are Blizzard bothering to develop 25-man versions of their dungeons at all?

This was addressed in the OP. 25 mans hvhe better loot=longer life span of the content overall.

I think they have it worked out pretty well, really. The guild I am in is not large enough to do a 25 man. We did have almost enough interest exactly one raid day during the last cycle of WoTLK.

I do not agree with the sentiment that 10 man should be a trainer for 25 man. In some cases, 10 man is even harder than 25, but not to the degree that the loot has to be equal. It is as close to equal but seperate paths that I think they can do.

I'm fine with the way it is and do not begrudge any 25 man player what they find from their experiencing of the content.

Because, Mowglie, there are only two reasons to do 25 man content: Better loot, and to polish your epeen at the bank in Dalaran in front of 10 man raiders. Epeen/ego is a powerful drug for some.
