Interesting and reasonable reason. My argument is just the opposite: put specific info to the left, and more common, less specific info to the right. I hate it when some application or website insists on putting the app/site name at the left of every browser window, with the real info - about the specific page or whatever, relegated to the right. Why? Because narrowing the window, or seeing the title in a tab, cuts off the pertinent part: the part that makes a difference. Good to see different arguments. Picking a default behavior is, like other things, about trade-offs.
