I have never paid much attention to where the bottom points, just the top pointing rearwards.

Any idea why this is required?

The best position for these BOGE springs to avoid gouging by the tails, top or bottom, is 90' from the recommended position. :y
I'm afraid I don't  :-[

The OE spring tails both point in the same direction, whereas the Boge are 180' opposed. Therefore with OE mounted as per guide, neither the top or the bottom tail is gouging, and I am guessing this is the reason for the recommended orientation. I am therefore going with my intuition, and mounting the BOGE to avoid gouging top or bottom. :y
