MOTM

Another thread on interface design, so I can't resist sticking my 
nose into your business, but why was the choice made to avoid 
convention in placing CV / IN / OUT jacks on MOTM modules?  

I guess I'm partial to the idea of having CV inputs near the bottom, 
audio inputs on the left and outputs on the right, ala Moog.  I'd 
expect the layout to conform to a flow from left to right, at least 
intra-module.  But with MOTM modules, the arrangement appears 
random.  

Am I missing something?

Trying not to be too annoying,
