Flat (untilted) is a definite position, so it gets a clickstop. In the flat position the screen is also supported by the top portion of the keyboard half of the phone, which makes it more solid.
The wobble at other tilt angles is the result of the "infinite tilt angles" design. The alternatives would be fixed tilt positions (more click stops) or making the hinge so tight that it would be a pain to adjust it. I think they made the right design choice.
