hadnt thought of the restriction. I am just visualizing a tube that sticks out far enough to get the bubble stream away from the edges of the mask. It would certainly be an issue to turn your head to the left and left & down. like I said before it would just be something to get snagged by floating gear, wires in a wreck, sea weed, all kinds of stuff. I have seen some older regs that exhaust only the same side as the reg hose. I dont recall the brand though. I guess that would be an ok. You already have a snag potential on that side anyway. you could always go to rebreathers....
