Well Bash said that you'd want more than one of a class for PvP and PvE. It seems like the reasoning behind that is because respecs cost a lot, and if you have to keep respeccing to do each you'll be broke. If you really like a class in both PvP and PvE you probably wouldn't mind leveling another one anyways.
Basically, What Bashiok said was that they want to add something that gives people who enjoy rerolling something for actually doing that. Please bear in mind that that something could just be a special achievement, or a title. It doesn't have to be something like +1 traits. As for why you would want more than one of each class there is always PvP/PvE as Jackzor said. And there might be even more reasons that we don't know about yet, depending on how the respec system will actually work.
Of course, you will never HAVE To make a new one because with respecs it will be hard to "break" a character like you could in Diablo II. But having two separate chars for different task, such as PvP and PvE, is something that a lot of people probably will want anyway.
Again, you should ignore the traits example and just look at the basic concept they are playing with. We will have to wait and see what the developers think about the issue.
