Why are AGP Video Cards NOT Manufactured the other way up ?

I was always under the belief that the AGP is rotated to reduce the likelihood, that someone would try to stick a PCI card into the slot. With the current alignment its clear that a PCI card won't fit, so after joe moves his cup out of the 'CD-ROM' cup holder and finds the 'any' key he won't go...
