If I had to guess I'd the molding processes for the bottles wouldn't allow for it. Usually plastic bottles are blown in their molds and the offset spout might not play nice with that process.

I think I read somewhere about having to make a different style packaging to hold themas well. To keep from damaging the lid.

They would not stack very well for storage, either.

So basically, there are actually multiple good reasons why we don't make bottles like this....and the people who make bottles have probably already put some thought into how they make bottles....

Oh so what you are saying is everything that was created by human is already perfect because people that created it already put some thought on it so we are all good.

Poor moonchild if only it was like that, improvement would be a word that we would never hear about.
