Look at the second screenie, there's definately little people by the flag. It does fade them out eventually, but that's fairly extreme range.

They do that because some people have to have their draw distance at small - therefore it would be unfair to them
It's actually because it reduces workload on the server. If people could see others in the far distance, that means the server has to send and recieve more information than before, resulting in higher latencies for all. This is why battlefields have higher character distance draw than normal, because those are on platforms designed to handle that information properly.

It's really dependant on the part of the game at which the screenshot is taken more than anything, I think.
But it's also in place because of how unfair it would be to people who couldn't handle large viewing distances...
New 1.1 Patch now allows F12 to work. Or use something like Fraps to do it
