Asymmetrical swedge?

Camillus did some like that. Purely decoration. I prefer it to be even myself, but it isn’t a dealbreaker when I find a vintage knife at a good price.
 
I always thought a swedge's practical use/purpose on a folding knife was to eliminate/reduce blade rub. The aesthetics being a secondary benefit or concern.
I recently had to lengthen a swedge to eliminate the blade rub, to make the neighboring blade openable without pliers or a pry.
