I'm guessing its due to the fact there are tons of those colors around, so if the cat is a different color or pattern then its more likely to be chosen first.
When adopting cats, I tend to choose those I feel have the best chance in the show ring (if they don't like showing, they just become homebody pets like Ling is). Ling is black & white. I've had a few black/white cats but none that were all black - tho I'd love to own a show quality all black Oriental SH one day!
I like to see a "flashy" patterned black & white rather then the more ordinary ones marked like you call "tuxedo". I really do not like using that term to describe the black & white bicolor
