pic: 973 finished parts

They look like upright supports for a pivoting arm -- and in that case, you'd want the holes on opposite ends to be in the same position relative to one another, not the end of part. Everything is probably zeroed to the right side of the piece so that, when mounted on the robot, the pivot holes (leftmost in the image) align.

All of the holes are in tolerance to each other, and it is crucial to what and they way we are doing it to know that; If you are familiar with a certain team, and have seen our teaser, it is should be rather obvious .

I understand. Yes, those holes are critical, and yes, I think they would run dimensions from the right side.

Sigh. I dream of the day when our team is able to make parts that have the word "precision" in them! For now we have our trusty hack saw and drill. If the parts don't align keep drilling until they do! We try to account for a certain amount of "slop" in all of our designs

One day though....CAD...lathe...CNC....ahhh.
