I noticed the symmetry, but no visible stitching on the hinged side. Because the other three sides DO have visible stitching, I suppose that that the flaps on the hinge side are NOT stitched, so that the kindle can slide under them. Those flaps could help keep the kindle from sliding out accidentally when the cover is folded back. The inner flaps could even be held in the curved position with something springy stitched inside them (or by other methods). But not having seen the design documents for these covers, I can only think about how *I* would design covers that matched the photos provided.

EDIT: The hinge-side flaps could even be secured with Velcro brand "hook and loop" fasteners.
