It's so if you need to shut the manifold and breathe off your back-up you still know how much gas you've got and you've still got the wing for buoancy.
I think!!!

Nearly right...but not quite. Wing inflator needs to be on the right post, together with the long hose. Then the drysuit (if you are using backgas for suit inflation) goes on the left post, together with the backup regulator.
So, in summary:
Right post: long hose and wing inflate.
Left post: backup reg. spg and dry suit inflate.
There is an argument in favour of running the wing off the left post for cold water diving, but it's not the "proper" DIR way.
If you want to know the why's and wherefore's of "what goes where", I can probably explain (I would need to rack my brains to try to remember!).
Hope this helps anyway.
