Should beast be pronounced like breast (without the r, obvious)? If that is the case, what about the word "Best"? Why have Beast and Best if they should sound alike. So then, Breast should sound like Beast. Gee that just sounds weird, when saying it.
There are so many other examples. The english language is full of oddities.

Cough, dough, tough, through.
The same four letter combination pronounced 4 different ways.
