I like to be able to get on/off the tractor from both sides, however there are some obstacles on 2515.
1. The FEL stich is on the way, let alone it is inconvenient for me to hold my right hand in this position dictated by the stick position, maybe it is just me.
2. There is no step, and jumping in/out or running around the tractor is really annoying.
3. It appeared that the start key is very long and also gets in my way. After bending it couple of times getting in/out i just cut it really short and made a little nob to help to turn it.

So, rebar, golf ball, and amazon bought $12 step helped make a difference.

You'd have to be a fashion runway model to get out on the right side of my cabbed 25. And it's got a step on each side. I think of it more of a possible emergency exit if something happens like a partial or full rollover, etc.

For me, I've just gotten used to climbing in on the left side. Kind of like mounting a horse? I don't even really think about it anymore.

I don't like to compromise if I can help it.
