If anyone could explain the reasoning behind it

The reason behind morse code? It was created to transfer messages through telegraphs

Pretty sure he means the dot and dash combinations. As in, why 'A' is not dot, since it's the first letter of the alphabet?

This is what I mean and am only now realizing I phrased very poorly…

I think he meant on how the chart is used.

as in, start at the wheel, if the first sound is a dot, go left, if it's a dash, go right. second sound etc
