What was the reasoning behind that?

  Probably to reduce support costs. I recall my junior high school had only Apple IIs in 1995.

  It's because the Apple I had no built-in BASIC, and booted to a Monitor prompt. It was hard to use without a manual in front of you. Meanwhile, the Apple II just let you put in a disk and boot a program. Huge difference in usability.
