If you don't want to go particularly fast or slow is it not just logical to stay in the middle?
It's logical but the inside lane is for driving and the outside lane(s) are for overtaking. If you drive to the letter if the law you should drive in the inside lane then if you come up to a middle lane hogger and you are going faster than them you have to swing out over two lanes to overtake them as it is illegal to undertake therefore it is more dangerous. You often find middle lane hoggers are nervous drivers who don't like to overtake so pootle along there causing other drivers to cross multiple lanes just to get round them.
