its generally best practice to reduce e.g. the time to understand a navigation. centered elements are harder to fully understand and often perceived as decorative elements. in ux/ia, you usually follow transaction models like OSIT (orientation selection information transaction) where in western oriented groups, the O is usually top left and the T on the bottom right, therefore you are reducing massively conversion and usability of the application by

A placing a navigation on the right hand side reducing conversion as it is out of focus of the user

B hiding it in a burger menu button on the right hand side reducing conversion due to lack of understanding
