The dilemma, indeed. From the point of view of an outside observer it would
all work out in the wash. At the end of the day the wheel boxes can be
installed in either position and the parking location adjusted to suit either
RHD or
LHD applications.
There may, however, be other considerations such as do the tubes foul with
something under the dash in one position or the other.
One could install one wheel box one way, the other one the other way and have
wipers that work in mirror image patterns the way some old American cars did.
