Why do the speed settings on fans always go [OFF -> HIGH -> MED -> LOW] instead of [OFF -> LOW -> MED -> HIGH]?

Every fan I’ve seen is like this. I’m guessing there is probably a reason for it, even though it seems more intuitive for the lowest setting to follow the off position, rather than having to cycle from OFF through HIGH and MEDIUM to get to LOW.
