It add to the fun in gameplay. You have to get close before you shoot, or you will waste precious ammo.
This gives more chance for the prey to avoid the predator. And also, it give you reason to try and avoid gunfire. Normally when I have a better turning plane on my six, I just let him 'chew me up' (will try to turn a bit, but wont go rolling etc) if I cant see any other target. If it is limited ammo, I will jump and dance all around, hoping he will run out of ammo.

Why do you care about a streak?it wont give you anything... Do you think it is more fun to have a streak, then to actually have to dogfight to get your kills?
I prefer someone on my six running out of ammo and crashing to get new. Then to have a guy who starts shooting with his G-6 from 1.5 km, and keeps on shooting for 5mins. Even a monkey is bound to hit something if he does is like that (and 1 with form a 30mm can be more than enough) As long as ammo-less people crash when they have no bandit on their 6, its all fine by me.

Dont get me wrong, I like unlimited ammo also, but limited ammo increases the experience. It increases difference between rookie and ace, and most of all, increases the need for a REAL dogfight.

EDIT:
Sure hope they make some re-arm option in the update. having to commit suicide ---> get a -1 penalty for it ---> just to re-arm, would ruin the limited ammo option
