As others have said, they keep the record for everyone. For a site like linked in, they may want to protect their position should someone query whether a "conversation" actually took place.
It also eliminates all the support calls for "I just deleted an important message, can you get the backup from the archive" situations.
I am constantly reminded that "there is a logical explanation for every situation"...
and LinkedIn are very good at figuring out what causes the least amount of pain to their user base - as evidenced by the rarity of support requests - even her on Answers.
Considering there are 36 million users who have no training standard or tutorial to complete before they are let loose on the system I think they do quite well.
Hope this helps,
