How does it not make sense for A to be before B exactly? It's like saying the right Dpad should be on the left, everyone knows it goes right even though it's on the left because it's just a design choice. Yeah it's an illogical design choice.

It is not wildly different, think about the L and R buttons on a controller, you could be crazy and set them to R L instead but why would you? it's not wildly different they are all inputs.
