Since Metacity shows up as a program, it also shows up in the "Installed Software" list, so any user can be looking through the installed software and think, "Metacity? GTK window manager? What's that? I don't need that!" and remove it, which I'm sure would cause some serious problems if that user decided to turn off visual effects or never had them on in the first place. Also, Metacity seems more like a system package than a program.
(And by the way, I don't think every word needs to be capitalized in some parts of Software Center, like "Get Software" and "Installed Software.")
