For so many reasons, the poor aesthetics being probably the lest of them. I'm not sure why they thought they had to make a short offset fork in the first place, but it seems that even then they couldn't commit to it so they just used the normal crown and flipped the dropouts around. Wound Up's way of making forks would be fine if they were a lot cheaper than ones made properly, but they aren't.
