I think it's because people see it as implying that the fact that one can say "excuse me" implies that it's therefore OK to be obnoxiously oblivious in public. I could be wrong, but I think that's what is going on.

exactly, it shouldn't have to require asking for you to be courteous. You should just be courteous, unprompted. If you want to have a conversation that's great, just kindly move off to the side
