I think the extra, asymmetrical "chainstays" are purely aesthetic whimsy. The mixte lug for the diagatube has sockets for stays to go back to the rear dropout. In the description, Grant mentions that he wanted a diagonal tube - functional use be damned! He used the mixte lug, in lieu of the Hunqha lug, so here are these extra sockets that can be ground off (boring) of he could stick some crazy tubes to: a) look interesting and unique, b) because things don't always need a purpose, c) and the likes of the people on this list would have a field day trying to figure out WHY.
