It’s the Small Stuff, Pt. 1

I’ve been staying at my folks’ house over the holidays, and I’ve yet to discover any rhyme or reason to the light switches. I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve inadvertently turned on the fan, rather than the light, in the bathroom. It seems logical and natural to me to have the light nearest to the doorway, so, from a user perspective, it’s the first switch they encounter.

In this bathroom it’s reversed, with the light on the left and the fan on the right. Is this just a careless wiring issue, or adhering to some kind of housing code that I’m unaware of?
