In more common terms you could say that bringing out the trade system will inevitably lead to people selling in-game items via websites for real money. This will in turn cause those people trying to hack/scam accounts in hopes of getting more money (get accounts -> get their virtual cash). Most trade sites use all tricks possible to maximise cash, often resulting in built up bot accounts to gather money and other foul ways wich compromise the casual player enjoyment of the game.

Of course that makes it sound very bleak etc. but that's always a possibility the developers must acknowledge. Also adding trading will cause an increased need of "money sinks" in order to prevent mass inflation.
