It's because we have mechanical fans. The fan settings are for cars with electric fans (like the Mustangs).
Granted, I know some of the mechanical fans have a wire to engage, but not sure what triggers it (AC or temp?). For my 03, there is not wire. The clutch is purely engaged by temp.
Besides, I've always heard these engines operate better at the 200 degree mark.
