It isn't optional. Don't worry though, I believe Dinnerbone said it was limited to better armor and stuff that mobs spawn with. Creepers don't blow up bigger and zombies don't have any extra health or anything. I expect the speed at which one can mine and craft and smelt to gear up outstrips the increase in difficulty anyway.
