Why does the shoe and clothes sections of today's supermarkets have the small sizes on the top shelf and the big sizes down near the floor?

Why is a boxing ring square?

Why do you sit in the stands?

Why do you blow on your food to cool it down and blow on your hands to warm them up?

you can cool food by expelling the steam above it exacting more vaporisation with the heat of vaporisation being carried away.

And if you blow on cold surfaces (below the temperature of your breath you still manage to transfer heat. (Plus you can reap the heat of cendensation if your hands are really cold).

Because there's always two fat bastards in 6 who ask for two hot dogs with their bun.
