Fair point, and without either going there or 'driving' through on Streetview and counting the lines it would be difficult to tell how the view varied.

Perhaps not. But increasing the radius of the curve and therefore adding stability *is*.
Is stability often an issue on public roads during cornering? Perhaps it could be argued that if you're at risk of losing control, so have positioned for 'stability', then being on the left of the line would give you more recovery space. Of course, going slower could regain a margin for error too.
[It could also be argued that if you're travelling faster when you encounter a poor surface, you'll be over it sooner

But, anyway, the discussion, and Stefluk's point, was position for view at 100+. Since police training is carried out all across the UK, there must be some Home Counties examples . . . ?
Your 'standard' is how you drive alone, not how you drive during a test.
