Default Dumb, likely pointless question, but why?

why is the head always located on the starboard side?
and then the galley/entertainment, is on the port - seems like it would be one helluva lot easier to swap sides for wiring and plumbing wouldn't make a difference.
Wiring is already there for the dash, it would be easy to move the head to the port side.
Any reason for this?

Dash is usually higher on the driver's side-more "head room". Also uses what is dead space under the dash.

I'll be in Toledo the later part of the last week of May (the Memeorial day weekend), Gonna be in Pittsburgh the early part of that week - wish this was all vacation, but it's working both destinations.
I've moved too many times, and have my "sthuff" spread out all over the place - time to collect it all and deal with it in one place.
If you want 2 guest's for Mem. weekend, we'll buy.
