The design is intelligent in the sense that it solves a much bigger
problem: left and right hand drawer slides have always been a PITA to
keep track of.

The "mirrored" slides are interchangeable, meaning you no longer have to
worry about matching pairs of drawer slides; and if you buy an extra
pair for when Murphy strikes, you now have two spares instead of one.
