It's easier when writing 3d renderers cause the x and y coordinates of the 3d points eventually become the x and y coordinates of the 2d points on screen and it's easier to keep track of
Indeed, depth buffers etc are from the z coordinate.

I wonder in which contexts y would make more sense as the depth.
