How is one hole not symmetrical if it's right in the middle?
What, like our mouth and entire digestive tract? Or bellybutton? Or genitals? Yeah no. A single hole is perfectly symmetrical, not to mention that there were and are asymmetrical animals as well as those that are not left-right but radially symmetrical (for example jellyfish). The only reason is, our nose holes used to be on opposite sides of our heads and only relatively recently evolved to be close together.
Hmm, I wouldn't be so sure about that.
