The MacKeeper uninstall utility is…
  1. poorly designed and/or implemented
  2. carelessly designed and/or implemented
  3. an afterthought created by someone unfamiliar with the product
  4. either untested or the result of a faulty test design
  5. the product of a sloppy development process
  6. an attitude users are not supposed to uninstall MacKeeper
  7. all of the above

MacKeeper is not the only product that has been guilty of faulty uninstall utility design and/or implementation over the years, but it is on a short list of applications notorious for this. Interestingly anti-virus products account for a major portion of that short list.
