One explanation for why it's this way round is because Black stole "B" (because it's the colour of selfishness), and "L" is used for "Life". It also helps make the Colour Pie somewhat pronounceable (WUBRG ["woo-burg"] rather than, say, WBKRG).

* Old versions of the programming language FORTRAN determined the type of a variable by the first letter of its name: names beginning with I, J, K, L, M and N were reserved for integer variables, and those starting with other letters were assumed to represent floating-point values. For this reason, it became quite common in FORTRAN programs to have variables with names like KOUNT.
