Nissan designed the plumbing this way for a reason - specifically,
to most efficiently regulate the intake manifold temperature. By
changing the routing of the plumbing, you will change the effect that
turning the heater on/off will have on the overall operation.
If Nissan could have saved two feet of heater hose on every car simply
by repositioning the 'T' fitting, chances are they would have...
And as has been discussed before, for a normal street car you really do
want to heat the intake manifold...
