When it was men on horses it left you sword arm facing your (possible) opponent. I'm not sure what the logic for doing it the other way around is. Maybe it's a pacifist thing.

Napoleon wanted a system that was contrary to the romans, to mark the difference in the Imperium. You English refused to do anything Napoleon wanted.
However, these days, nobody uses their swords while on horses on the road, so I think you can forget about it and change your system. Sweedish did it overnight, and it worked prety well (yeah, I know, traffic there is a lot less than here)
