IMHO, at the manned gates, the non resident lane is closest to the attendant and they can quiz the person about what they are doing, offer directions to their destination, etc., at the Morse gate (just north of 466) I never use the resident gate due to the high traffic flow, the merging of the cars, and the occasional golf cart straying into traffic from the right.
