Amazingly most manufacturers put their ports on the front of the
enclosure,whether it be home or pro. Hmmm must be a good reason
for that. Makes sense to have the other 50% of total driver rad-
iation pointing in the same direction as the cone. Personal
aesthetics and spacing should really dictate where it goes though🙂

You'll note that a significant number of home speakers (particularily some of the better ones) have ports on the back or bottom. This helps reduce audibility of port noise and HF leakage as well as providing greater boundary gain on the output.

Yes they should definitely face the port in another direction,
especially if they didn't design it properly( made it too small).
Any internal mid and Hf reflections in the cabinet are usually
damped/ broken up by stuffing and bracing scheme's, But can also
come thru the cone itself if the enclosure is improperly designed
Though I have observed many fine enclosures moved away from
boundries like walls and corners to calm down the uneven/exagger-
ated response variations those spots provide for the audio spectrum.
