Small character sets are much more implementable on primitive systems like telegraphs and electro-mechanical ttys.

It wasn't even practical to display a rich character set until the early 1980's or so. There wasn't enough memory. Glass ttys at the time could barely, and I mean barely, display ASCII. I know because I designed and built one.
