I've heard that the reason Brits designed cars to have
the "pull-up" motion to engage reverse is that it's
the same ceps that are used to lift a pint. 

Maybe they figured that they (The British consumers)
would be using muscles that were already well
exercised.

I'm not sure if there's a rhyme or reason, but it's
what I tell everyone that asks me why.
