Default Why does gnutella use the http protocol instead of another...

Such as ftp or some other protocol thats' more efficient. I could be wrong but it's my understanding http is not the most efficient protocol for quick file transfers. FTP is better and there may be others better than that I don't know. I'm just curious why htey choose this protocol...
