Some titles foregoing a Blu-ray only (i.e. not including 3D Blu-ray) releases?

[Sparrowsabre7]

Flicking through Amazon for a couple of titles I'm likely to get in the future ("Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special" and "The Hobbit: Extended Edition") and I note that both of them only have 2 releases, one with DVD only and one with 3D Blu-ray and Blu-ray. Both seem to forego a separate Blu-ray only release.

Now, I understand the reasoning, as it means less releases cluttering the shelves for a single film/show, but as someone who frankly hates 3D and would very much like to not support it in any way where possible, it's really annoying that if I want the Blu-ray edition of these titles, I HAVE to get the 3D blu-ray too, I have no other choice.

Does it affect me personally much? Not really, I guess, but The Hobbit has that crass "3D!!!!!" on the cover and the additional disc that I cannot use is just a waste.

Has anyone else noticed this trend, or am I late to the party to even bring it up?
