Assuming I understand you correctly and what you're saying is that the CIMs should be rotated so that one of the mounting bolts can be used to mount the standoff: if the CIM was rotated in such a way then one of the bolts would be behind that massive low-speed dog gear. Although mounting gearbox standoffs to the CIMs is a great way to simplify the design, in this gearbox because of the way they gear their CIMs, the CIMs are much closer to the dog gears making it so the CIM cannot be oriented in any way much different than its current orientation.
