Yes, but Cyrodil is an area designed for PvP and a decision can be simply made as to whether to go there for PvP or not. Admittedly there are some PvE quests and skyshards there and as a PvEer you go there for those at a known risk.
However, the Justice System is very different in that it is aimed at the whole of the open world including the cities, and there's nothing optional about visiting those areas, while opting out of the Justice System won't just be a decision about PvP, it will also involve opting out of a major part of the looting system as well as the lore/role-play aspects of the Thieves Guild - depending on how any PvP element is implemented.
That's why I'm happy for there to be a PvP element to the Justice System, but not so major an element that it precludes PvEers from participating in it - and not so structured that the cities become even more full of naked characters casting spells all over the place than they are already!
