When Jacques Guy designed the first version of the transcription alphabet that eventually became EVA, he tried to make the transcribed words pronounceable.  As a linguist, he must have considered the Italian values of letters (which are the basis of IPA) as the proper pronunciation of transcribed letters.  Could that be all there is to it?
