I don't think that's true. And I think it is a nice catalogue, it also tells us how active some members are around here or otherwise which I don't use for anything I just like th know out of curiosity. I haven't seen anybody discriminated aginst due to post count. Some of hte most valuble members have almost zero posts while some of the lesser valuable have high and vice versa.

Pits, wolf_hunter beat me to the suggestion :p

I think just having the post count available in the profiles would be an excellent compromise- it's available if you want to know how many you've got/made, and if someone really wants to know how active you've been, they can find it there. However, with it no longer being right under your avatar, people would (I hope) be much less likely to make quick judgements based on your post count and judge your post on its content.
