Why does it seem that all freestyle swimmers breath to the right? I breath to the left but...yeah..

In practice I'll breath every 3 most of the time. I'll switch to every 2 on distance sets. But when I breath every 2 I make sure I always breath facing the same wall. That way I'm bilateral breathing by 25s or 50s (LC).
The main reason I do that though is because of my shoulders. If I breath to only one side that shoulder ends up hurting more than the other. Also off turns I alternate which arm I pull with first, again because of shouldes problems (tendenitious).
