Because it's far faster to scan than scroll. Because if more are displayed, if you do have to scroll you're more likely to scroll until the one you want is visible and stop before it scrolls out of view, so you don't have to scroll back the other way. Because if you use match-while-typing you have to type less before you can select your class.

A pop-up choice list displaying only 5 items really is lame given the sizes of displays that users have now.
