Eli5 why driving on one side of a car is more practical than driving in the middle of one. Surely, the middle gives you better spacial awareness but things like the Monza SP1 exist and you still sit on one side of the vehicle

Also visibility for changing lanes and backing out of parking spaces. A middle seat increases your blind spots behind you. It’s also easier to get in and out if you don’t have to get over or through a bunch of car to get to your seat. You can also still signal with your arm out the window if your signal lights stop functioning.
It might feel more symmetrical sitting in the middle, but I think spatial awareness differences would be negligible in most regular driving situations.
