Presta is lighter, is easier for connecting quick-release pump chucks, and is easier to let air out of when you want to reduce pressure.
Schrader exists, I guess. If your rims are drilled for it, it works.

Nah, Schrader valves are used extensively in high-pressure applications. Aircraft tires are often used at more than 200PSI, for instance.
