Second, it might be intentional. it is a little odd, I agree, but as both forums do this and a default vBulletin configuration would be centered (I can tell they're using vBulletin, with some modificaitons), it may have been intended to be that way.
The fix's were more for anyone who uses add-ons to apply them. I am sure SE has people who can do it however, an omission like this appears to be more oversight than not. It's quite easy to tell this is VB, the second line in the source code says that as well
