It is objectively bad design that the arrow is leaning far left by default. It makes you wonder what else they messed up.
/s? newsweek may be terrible, but that is not the reason.

The thing that says “click to rate” and has the pointer arm off the chart in it’s default “rest” position.

Thanks for breaking down how poorly this bias indicator is implemented. That is the point that I wanted to make.
