So what kind of engineer designs a snowthrower for the BACK of a tractor? Do these idiots drive to work in reverse as well?

It simplifies the power transmission to the blower - front PTO is
complex, and hydraulic more expensive. Also with a BIG blower it is
harder to see past them on the road with them in front , and
positioning of the blower CAN be more precise with the rear wheel
steering.
