Probably security.  It gives you a chance to boot the new box up and 
tighten things down before turning on the Ethernet port.

To make it come up on first boot, go to the Configure -> General tab , 
in the network configuration section and say "Automatically connect to 
the network when available."

You also have the option to bring up the Ethernet connection just during 
installation, which can be useful with DHCP in a netinstall.
