Bridge does not now and never has had editing features, but it has never been a problem for me to open Photoshop or Camera Raw to make some changes. Just selecting and tapping "Enter," or double-clicking a thumbnail in Bridge opens the image in Photoshop instantly with no importing/exporting necessary. I know that for many people one extra keystroke can be a waste of time, but I am not that in that big a hurry, thank goodness.
For occasional edits of a few images, yes PS is fine working from bridge. But when I have hundreds of files to edit I like LR and use it all the time for most of my work using RAW files. When I shoot sports I am most often shooting jpeg and would like a faster workflow that eliminated the import/export feature, while doubling file space with two copies of every image. There must be others that feel the same way. Maybe the folks at Adobe will incorporate that into LR or Bridge someday.
