It sounds logical,  or is it a joke, but a mirror image will create
problems as soon as a scooter is used(  to avoid tisue damage on long deep
dives). Stages are normally left, and the scooter is used with the right
hand and located in front on the right side of the diver. Then the
slip-stream is not hitting the stages. 

Having the trigger on the right side of a tow-behind scooter, gets the
right handle close to the top which allows one-hand operation. Looking from
behind, the running  scooter is turning counterclockwise due to rotational
force.

Using a mirror image of the system with a scooter, the trigger has to be on
the left, but also the rotation of the motor has to be changed and a set of
mirror propeller blades has to be found.
