If the egg was just thrown away (or eaten as the most macabre and cannabalistic of the responses would recommend) then it would be a bit like a virtual abortion of these supposedly intelligent magical creatures, which isn't a good concept for a family friendly all ages game like DragonVale. However the egg pedestals sort of manage to get around that by preserving the dragons "magical essence" and claiming that it could potentially be hatched elsewhere.
