It's just lazy. If SE don't want people saying certain words then the profanity filter should not be able to be switched off.

By having an optional profanity filter you're sending the message that the filter is only for your personal use. By forcing it on all the time you're sending the message that the words it filters out are not okay under any circumstances.

Yes I know people will find ways to use profanity around a filter but the point is they would be purposely doing so while knowing the game completely forbids it. So they would be aware that they are most definitely breaking a rule. As it is now, the profanity filter being optional can be misleading.
