I wonder if anyone would complain if I made a point of drawing a whole
schematic package "backwards" with inputs on the right and outputs on
the left... and maybe make things flow more from bottom to top...


I would hope someone would mention it in your next design review. I have a
couple of circuit books where the author spend a few pages mentioning how
there is a marked difference in the understandability of schematics based on
how they're drawn, particularly for things like differential pairs which, as
you mentioned, people "expect" to be facing one another.

It seems like your employer decided that all power buttons should go on the
lower-level corner of equipment as well!
