Beautiful Parker Tom!!
I believe you are correct on the reasons you suggest for reverse chokes.
My belief is that of the sequence of firing on incoming pass shooting for waterfowl as well as for driven birds that are incoming would be the reason.
The arguement to this might be “Why not simply reverse which trigger you pull first?” and I would answer that for shooters who have ALWAYS been accustomed to pull the forward trigger (right barrel) first it may just prove too confusing to do that, when ordering a gun with reverse chokes would eliminate that problem.
