The C89 rationale document is useful here, specifically section
3.2.1.1.

It describes the tradeoffs between unsigned-preserving and
value-preserving semantics that the committeee considered when
making the decision to codify value-preserving behavior.  Of
note to this discussion is the following:

|Both schemes give the same answer in the vast majority of
|cases, and both give the same effective result in even more
|cases in implementations with twos complement arithmetic and
|quiet wraparound on signed overflow — that is, in most current
|implementations.

This suggests the committee felt that it was rare that signed
integer overflow was treated specially by compilers, and that
the equivalent of `-fwrapv` was the dominant case, and would
continue to be in the future.  (Oh, those sweet summer
children....)

The text continues with descriptions of operations where the
promotion of `unsigned char` and `unsigned short` values yield
results that the committee dubbed, "questionably signed."  That
is, places where interpreting the sign of the result is
ambiguous given the two different semantics.

They highlight that the same ambiguity arises with operations
mixing `unsigned int` and `signed int`, but state that (to use
their words), the "unsigned preserving rules greatly increase
the number of situations where `unsigned int` confronts `signed
int` to yield a questionably signed result, whereas the value
preserving rules minimize such confrontations.  Thus, the value
preserving rules were considered to be safer for the novice, or
unwary, programmer."

They do go on to note that this is a, "quiet change", at odds
with contemporary Unix compilers, and say, "This is considered
the most serious semantic change made by the Committee to a
widespread current practice."  Indeed.

The situations they were thinking about were things like this:

    unsigned short a = 8;
    int b = -5;
    long c = a * b;

With value-preserving semantics, `c` is 40.  On the other hand,
with unsigned-preserving semantics, assuming a 64-bit `long` and
32-bit `int`, `c` is 4294967256; logical enough, but one could
see how that might be surprising for someone unfamiliar with the
language.

What they do not appear to have antipicated are compiler
developers who would exploit the undefined nature of signed
integer overflow so aggressively that things like taking the
product of two 16-bit `unsigned short` values and assigning it
to a variable of unsigned type might yield unexpected results
(like a saturated product).

And I sincerely believe that they never thought that anyone
would use "undefined behavior" as a cudgel to justify such
behavior, even if a compiler would technically be operating
within the bounds of the standard if it did so.  Talk about
being surprising for the novice or unwary....

On balance, I agree with you that they should have chosen
unsigned-preserving semantics.  Perhaps it would have led to
more situations where `unsigned int` "confronts" a `signed int`
that is negative (like they're about to throw down outside a bar
over a spilled drink or something), but in retrospect, I think
that's relatively easy to explain, while the value preserving
semantics lead to more UB and different questions: from the
novice perspective, it is very reasonable to ask why
`(unsigned short)8 * -5 == -40` but
`(unsigned)8 * -5 == 4294967256`).
