Lateral entry is not at all practical space-wise for every socket except 939 and 940. I have seen one DIY block made with side inlet and outlet (it was a pass-through design with 45-degree elbows) but he wasn't aiming for top performance.
It has no benefits aside from lower restriction. It would also complicate machining, which is not something I'm too keen on doing.
