Uncommon but not oddball. Most engine crankshaft centrelines are in line with the shaft but not all are built in that manner. Those saying it should all be changed , I will bet, are not aware that the engine crankshaft, shaft and prop centre lines are not inline.

If the crankshaft centreline were changed to be in line the engine would have to be raised an unsatisfactory amount.
