I'd bet that people who leave a wireless mouse plugged in all the time are a very tiny minority of mouse users. Most people want to use their wireless mouse wirelessly. For that vast majority the only consequence of the Magic Mouse port being on the bottom is that if they forget to charge their mouse for weeks and it dies in the middle of the day with the Magic Mouse they have to stop using the mouse for two minutes to get through the rest of the day whereas with the other mouse they would not lose those two minutes of mouse time.
