In addition to the other reasons cited, one of my arguments was that I wasn't 100.00% sure that the app team hasn't squirreled something away in a non-production storage group that really was needed for either running or fixing or recovering production. And the chance for human error sneaking in when you're setting up the list of volumes to replicate likely increases if the rule is "replicate only some of the volumes" vs. "replicate all volumes".
