Completely irrelevant.
The rule simply highlights what happens in the real world.
Here's a
UK Youtube video demonstrating 45 degree reverse parking. Similar manoeuvre. Look at the road sign opposite in the distance. It starts off to the right of the car and then ends up straight ahead of it.
USA YouTube video of parallel parking(around 1:40 in). The silver car starts off to being to the right, but after reversing with left hand down, it's directly in front. The silver car hasn't moved.
Try walking backwards in a similar way. Something started off to the right of you, ends up in front.
Shows so many people are blinkered and biased, that they refuse to recognise what happens each and every day.
