Hovis
In dubtap's diagram, they're suggesting using asymmetrical chainstays to move the hub right so that the rim is centred between the hub flanges. Fatbikes with offset-135 rear ends do this so that the chain doesn't rub the 3.5"+ tyre in the easier gears.
Using offset rims to move the tip of the spoke triangle to the left lets you achieve a more symmetrical build without wonky frames.
