Why did Dodge block brake controller plug?

I want to know which engineer at Dodge decided where to place the plug for the brake controller?

There is a huge bundle of wires right in front of the brake controller plug. I almost couldn't get the cable for the brake controller plugged in.

Do any of Dodge's engineers actually own a truck?

They could all own cars or SUVs.

Ever think it was a production worker who made a "change" to make his job easier? Maybe engineering designed it one way and production thought of an easier way so he made the change on the fly? And neither person has seen the finished product?
