They can't "throw up the U" casually. It takes concentration and effort. The Y can be tossed around and displayed much more conveniently in pictures, live tv, mid celebration (etc).

Took me time to warm up to it!

I used to really dislike the Y hand sign. Now, for one simple reason, I love it.

Also, it's not meant to be the "shaka." It's the "Y" in sign-language.
