Because 7.1 is probably the best of the System 7 versions (save 7.6), IMHO.
It's small and lacks much of the garbage that was in 7.5.x.
7.6 is good but you need a correspondingly buffer system to run it. All of
my 68Ks run 7.1 except the SE/30 and the Plus, which run 6.0.8 -- even the
NetBSD IIci :-)
