Lots of times there isn't a choice as to where it has to be... The manufacturer has many competing things to consider. The tank location may be where it is to help maintain good weight distribution (not everyone can dump at camp) whatever is plumbed into it, slide room hardware etc.
My TT has one valve like that. Of course I have four 42 gallon waste tanks and a 42 gallon fresh water tank... So they were running out of room with mine. LOL.
But I wouldn't let this be a deal breaker. There are electric valves you can install, and the on off switch can be put most anywhere.
You would need to hook up your hose before extending the slide when setting up camp, but the dumping would be as simple as flipping a switch.
