It is a nice innovation but ultimately not appreciated by the industry. Having a confusing store layout is a psychological strategy to maximize or at least to influence buying behavior of customers.

Sticking staples in the corners away from the entrance so you need to traverse the entire floor is a common trick.

Also changing up locations of other products so you always know where the staples are but need to search for other things.

No more need to stop random store employees to ask, "Hey, where is the vaginal lube?" :)
