EQ mount, tripod legs & balance weights

I noticed in most cases the weights are over a tripod leg when in the 'home' position - as per the image in Garyh's EQ5 for sale.

In mine the weights are between two of legs i.e. the head is rotated 180º as compared to the photo, its possible to change but I would think that once balanced there would'nt any difference, even though it somehow looks more stable when over one of the legs.

So I was just wondering if there is any benefits that would make it worth the effort to change mine?


Thanks.
