producer consumer "clean up diagram" puts consumer on top of producer

I do File > New... > VI > From Template > Frameworks > Design Patterns > Producer/Consumer Design Pattern (Events)

Then without doing anything to the block diagram or front panel, I click on the "clean up diagram" which does the auto block diagram cleanup.  Bam! Consumer loop is put on top of Producer. 

 

I tried a bunch of combinations of the Block Diagram options settings (wire spacing, move controls left, etc.) , but the "clean up diagram" always wants to put consumer loop on top of the producer loop.  How can I get labview to maintain the original loop positions?

If you select one part of a diagram before doing the cleanup, it will only cleanup the selected code. Why does it bother you? Functionally it makes no difference.

There is a reason a lot of use do not like to use the Block Diagram Cleanup.  It generally works for simple VIs.  But I would not use it on my top level architecture.
