Your preference presumably is based on your personal assumption that you are in fact "most visable" or even more visable when cycling farther left, and more importantly, that innattentive/careless drivers are looking where you happen to be 100% of the time, can instantly determine the distance and speed differentials and/or will respond in the appropriate manner if and when they do recognize that an immenient collision will occur unless someone alters couse.
