Eric,
I can definitely see your point of view if I adopt the mindset of stepping outside of what seems to be common business practice. In the context of how things work, it's relevant to understand how salary range is goign to be used (and if it's illegal to ask in the US I'm not aware of it), whether you agree or not.

Or, offer to discuss your salary history if and only if they'll first give
you the market range for the open position. Then when negotiating salary
(assuming you agree with their range) argue based on your perception of
your position with respect to market average skills and knowledge.
