Because if you are upgrading it without an active network, it may effect 
the installer from completing successfully. If you are installing fresh, 
mc is one of your primary tols for setting up your files initially or 
dealing with files in general.
nano has a problem for me with wrapping text on long line entries, 
mcedit on the other hand is not prone to the nano flaw.

No big deal, it just lacks rationality.
