Why do table fans velocity goes OFF-3-2-1, instead of OFF-1-2-3?

For clarification, I’m referring to those fans with a radial controller in its base.

its a quirk on electrical motors that no smaller scale(like a fan) its easier ans safer for itself to start at full power than to attempt to started at the lowest possible speed.

a small electrical motor usually has issues if they were to start in a off-1-2-3 setup where it would be very likely the “1” setting wouldn’t work some of the times. however once a motor is allowed to start at full power its much easier to scale its speed down.
