David,
No, I believe it is because most of the computer mics use a stereo
plug. A mono jack would short out the ring and cause some mics to not
work properly.
Using a stereo jack for mono signals is usually a good idea,
particularly if one does not know what can be placed on the ring contact.

is this just because it's easier to stock just stereo sockets?
The mic plug on my Heil K2 proset is mono. And it work just fine.
