I don't know what you have been driving but every manual car i have had the gear lever and clutch pedal in a fixed position. If reverse and 1st and the clutch and brake swappped positions every time i turned the steering wheel i think i would have struggled.
Obviously they don’t move, but hand and foot co-ordination involved in changing gears, finding clutch biting point, feeding in the accelerator (so 2 feet and 1 hand involved) etc is more difficult than working out what button to press (1 thumb involved) when the steering wheel is turned and the indicator buttons are upside down! It’s literally a 50:50 choice and after doing it 2 times you work out to press the top one (if steering wheel is turned) when wanting to leave a roundabout.
