It is what most if not all dive shops use as part of their rental fleet. Students use them for their classes so they learn on them and are comfortable in it and familiar with it. That is probably what they want to buy when they are ready to buy because that is probably all they know and have tried. Shops stock what people want. That helps turnover in inventory, not stocking things people may not want to buy. Shops tend to use the jacket style in their rental fleet because of how they make someone feel at the surface when they may be a bit more nervous and inflate them all the way full. There are probably a lot on the market at lower price points which lends itself to better ROIs. It probably offers the students a more secure feeling to have the entire air bladder wrapped around the them, similar to how a flotation device or a life jacket might feel around them.
