It's not weird. Pilots get used to a particular 2D pattern of repeatedly and sequentially scanning the instruments in front of them. When flying a particular model of aircraft, safety requires those instruments to be in the same place without the pilot having to waste even a second looking for them.

Among those reports were complaints that pilots couldn't find the gauges quickly and that they were taking much longer to scan the gauges because they were so different.
