That's the point of the feature though. POP3 moves emails, it's really a transfer protocol rather than an access protocol.
I assume Google is killing it since they assume they're effectively in-charge of email outside of things like company Outlook accounts. They've got no need to worry about people migrating to gmail, since everybody starts out on it now.
