The trouble with that joke is that it's pretty much the actual reason! With the weight on their backs the centre of gravity is shifted to the point that it is muscle tearingly difficult to roll forward.

Well the real answer is so that the dive mask doesn't get ripped off your face. All scuba equipment is somewhat firmly attached to the body and for the most part protects it, except for the dive mask. Entering the water backwards also is the best direction for your fins.
... and they don't always fall off backwards. In the 1970s I was taught a technique called UDT named after the US military Underwater Demolition Team where you dive headfirst off the side of a moving boat such that your back hits the water first - again to protect the mask. I can't find any pictures of it but I'm pretty sure that there were plenty in 1972.
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...

If you've developed fins aren't you kinda past worrying about all that stuff?
