My guess is it's because they're used a lot for beginner rider training, and the ultra low first gear makes it easy for someone with no experience to get moving without stalling, and lets the rider go so slowly that an instructor can walk beside to give instructions, or the rider can maneuver around a tight course without having to work the clutch constantly.
