Back in the day, when I proposed changes to these elements, I put them on the center. People said that it looked crowded, boring, etc... However, my reasoning was because the selections are too far in the corners. It wasn't a problem with smaller older screens but it would become a problem with ultra-wide, 4K monitors, etc. The options would be too far from the center where the user is. I don't know that the bar at the bottom is a good solution overall. But it does bring attention to the area. I can help with defining how they can look in the center?
