it's a britbong thing.
99% of british children's books push hyper-conformism and "knowing your place" in the social hierarchy. if a character does something "quirky" he needs to be punished

That would explain why he made Mike so American by styling him after a western-loving cowboy.

Quoted By:

Mike alone was the only child whose punishment was ironically not self-inflicted. Augustus fell into the river of his own accord, Violet chewed on gum of her own will, and Veruca stood on the egg platform all by herself. Mike on the other hand, did indeed choose to shrink himself, but he enjoyed the time he spent tiny, and wanted to stay that way and even go through the television again to be even smaller. Mike's punishment came not from his own actions, but from what Wonka unwillingly inflicted upon him by forcing him into the taffy puller. Mike got screwed by Wonka, plain and simple.

If anyone else was tuning a TV set at the same time Mike was on TV, they could have gotten their very own copy of tiny Mike and no one will ever know.

I would become a magician and he would secretly be my assistant. Our tricks would be legendary, and we'd be rich and famous. Well, we both would be rich, only I would be famous, I don't want his parents nor spaghetti Mike to know that there's another Mike.

Are you sure you could keep him from trying to make himself known? Mike loved being on television, he'll probably want to be famous alongside you. And how would you even perform tricks with him? How would he help?

Do you think they ever actually stretched him back to normal? We never see.
