Chocolate and nut is a long-standing cone combination, and the nuts go on the crown for a practical reason: anything buried in a frozen centre draws moisture and loses its bite. Scattered over the top they stay dry, which is where the crunch comes from once the wafer has begun to soften. That softening is inevitable in any cone that sits in a freezer for weeks, so the topping is doing more work than it appears. The cone is chocolate lined, which is the standard way of keeping a wafer crisp against something frozen for the weeks it sits in a freezer. The ice cream is a vanilla and chocolate swirl rather than a single flavour, so the two arrive in whatever proportion the bite happens to take.
