I don't know how to explain it. I think you would get a more direct cleaner flow to the radiator. Air slows down as it expands. Trying to fill the right side of the radiator the air will slow a great amount taking that unnatural turn. Symmetry would be a big thing in my uneducated opinion. As far as the aero I am thinking side to side balance and you would split the air better over the hood because of the now equal pressure wave. If anyone has an opinion or a better explanation than me please chime in. I can't figure out how to describe what I mean for some reason.
