Because a filesystem being read-only is something the kernel keeps track of on a per-superblock basis.
According to Al Viro, doing this on a per mount point basis will be trivial in the future, once more parts of the namespace patch will have been integrated into the kernel.
(and yes, I'm looking forward to that day)
