I suppose to help people remember standard tuning.

you can take a B string and put it on the very bottom of a regular gauge set and use all the rest of the strings and they will still work with say a heavier string on top. Their just names.

Standard tuning (E A D G B E) has evolved to provide a good compromise between simple fingering for many chords and the ability to play common scales with little left hand movement. Uniquely, the guitar's tuning allows for repeatable patterns, which also facilitates the ease of playing common scales.
