Default 1" Right Hand "offset" of Jag Differential Output Pinion...Remedies?

I mentioned this in the post I made about bottom mounting the Jag IRS, but I think it got lost in there...

The output pinion on my Jag Salisbury differential is offset 1" to the right, and I assume that all Jag IRS's are designed this way; am I correct in this assumption? Or do some models/years not have this issue? I can see this causing some major headaches, especially with a short wheelbase/short driveshaft set up.

How have others alleviated this problem, or, for that matter, is it really a problem? Does anyone know how to calculate "potential" driveshaft angles without a driveshaft of the correct length to do the mock-up? Pleeeease don't tell me I'm going to have to mount my entire engine offset to the right!

Why did they offset the pinion in the first place??
