The newer model PS3's do not have either a Emotion Engine (PS2 CPU) or Graphics Synthesizer (PS2 GPU). They were removed one by one to reduce production costs. The former can be emulated in software without too many compatibility issues, but you need a physical version of the latter to play PS2 games.

PS1 BC is possible because the whole system could be emulated in software.

You can play PS1 games because of the PS1 games on PSN. But unless the rumors are true (about a PS2 emulator), you're SOL until then I'm afraid...

You can also play PS1 games because it doesn't cost anything to leave that feature in.
