Apparently the implementation of USB v1 is a lot simpler, and the tools for that standard are more widely available/accessible to developers.
USB v2 resources and documentation are supposedly more thinner on the ground and more complex to implement, which is why you tend to see more Firewire soundcards than USB 2. USB v2 is starting to pick up now it's becoming more understood and that better pre-composited drivers are written and becoming more accessible.
Which begs the question why they didn't choose Firewire.
... We can can only guess they reserved it for TI v2.

A ribbon-controller or XY-Pad might be nice, too, please! Thanks!
