I was really hoping Andrea just made a mistake and was meaning to say
that the launcher was going to be displayed on the monitor on the right.
Based on Kim's response it appears not to be the case and i'm quite
surprised to hear this. It might be the implemented behaviour now, it's
definitely not the wanted or desired behaviour.

People set a monitor as primary for a reason: to use it as the primary
one. That's were you want your primary actions and work to take place,
that's were you have your main attention on, your main workarea. This
definitely includes the launcher as well. Now you'd constantly have to
divert your attention by moving all the way to the left of your left
screen to get to the launcher. A non-primary might not even turned on
all the time.

Primary GUI items should be on the monitor the user considers the
primary, no matter its position.
