Although what you say here is true, the difference really is that you
can turn in one direction a hair tighter than the other. No one would
really notice this. The easest this to do is relocate the sterring wheel.

The relation between the steering wheel and the rack center point should not change during an alignment - so if your steering wheel is offset, so now is your rack! The alignment job not only needs to make sure the road wheels are in the correct relation to each other, but also that they are in the correct relation to the rack! If not, well.... Check your Bentley!
