wear on hoods - is yours symmetrical?

I've noticed that the rubber of the hood on my right lever wears a little more than the left one. I'm wondering if this is because one of my arms is longer than the other, and if so, should I move the levers a few mm to compensate? My usual setup is carefully measured to make sure the levers are at the same distance.

Or maybe it reflects some other subtle asymmetry?

    The wear on my hoods is pretty much similar to the eye this time of night and consumption of liquid in green bottles.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Probably because you use that brake more. Don't worry about it and don't move the levers.

    Duh... didn't think of that... :oops:

    That'll be it.
