You did not mention:

Because it generates the fastest programs on DOS.

Because it is the only TRUE 32 bit flat memory model compiler for DOS.

Because it provides better UNIX and portability support.

Because it comes with such a great development environment.

Because, because, because, because, becauuuuuussssse; because of the
