This has come up a few times before and apparently more than one mfg did this. The thinking was that for safety passengers were encouraged to enter and exit the passenger side next to the curb so that was the door to be locked after the driver slid across or walked around rather than standing in traffic. Maybe it was different then with narrow streets and crazy drivers or something else encouraged the thinking but I guess inconvenience was not a consideration.
