From modeling point of view forward-oriented shape orientation has no advantages over reversed one, and mixed orientation happens all the time in complex shapes (and difficult to avoid).
So I suppose this is just how BRepPrimAPI_MakeBox algorithm has been implemented - you may try building a box step-by-step in your own way.
