GeoJSON made the correct decision because it conforms with ISO 19125, just like every other data format for the last couple decades. Same reason PostGIS is in Lon/Lat order. Virtually all geospatial data that exists is formatted this way. If you are not sufficiently familiar with geospatial data to know this, then you probably shouldn't be assuming the order.
It behooves the new user to learn the industry standards and conventions instead of inventing their own.
