Water fill tube Question

Wife informs me that she has no problem filling fresh water tank with pressure nozzle. I have wondered why it wants to air lock and fill slowly, Today I crawled under there and find that the fill tibe makes a 90 and runs over a side stile in one of the cabinets. In doing so it makes a slight incline to the result that it will only gravity feed 1/3 of the tube diameter. Is this by design or by stupid?

There is room to notch and fix the issue.

Sorry, but RV factory jobs are specialized. They do NOT move people around from dept's. They do NOT have time to move and train people for specific dept's. The production line moves too fast to wait for a novice to get up to speed. Doug

The stupid is it took me ten years before I was fed up and actually looked in there. Over 90 degrees today so I'll wait a few days to fix it.

"Stupid".
The deeper you dig into any RV, the more of these little engineering marvels you'll find to fix.
