CodeIgniter default database driver is mysql instead of mysqli

According to php.net, mysql is deprecated and mysqli should be used instead. Why is 'dbdriver' (in application/config/database.php) set as mysql by default instead of mysqli or better yet PDO?

You can always change that to mysqli, but before changing to mysqli enable mysqli in php.ini As described in this answer.
