Simple they wanted to add flood lights out at the corner of the above deck, and the kO's wern't going in that direction, so they drilled the holes in that direction so they could just push the wire that way? and of course being packed with insulation doesn't help. Keep in mind this wasn't exposed when it was done.
Of course a skilled electrican would have used the KO's and a fish tape or rod, and fished the wires over to the corner.

Actually, these boxes were completely buried under the old soffit, this entire anomaly baffled me, they pulled portions of the "old old" soffit down to put these n/o's in to extend the wires about a foot when all they had to do was pull out a staple or two to get the whips to drop through the soffit where they needed them, all I did was remove the boxes and yank the staples out and "presto" long enough whip to fit through a hole centered in the corners of the new AZEC soffit.

Green Bs are great for testing the voltage without having to remove anything. ;-)
