Advantage?

The advantage is the offset swing axes, so gravity closes it either way.

Would the top be a single pivot point?

beautiful design: problem solving, simple, effective, apparently durable, easy to construct.

yep ten characters

yeah what about the top pivot point?

It seems to me it would have to have a single top pivot in the center of the post or else the gate would not prefer to swing to the closed position.
