It's just a design decision. (IIRC, even the older Nord Stage had reverb after rotary?) There are arguments for both setups. I don't know how many boards (at whatever price) let you
switch the order, which I guess is what you'd like (otherwise your "improvement" becomes someone else's step backwards). But regardless, "cheaper boards can do x" is never a great argument, because I guarantee you, the cheaper boards also will not do something that the Nord does. You can't look at each more expensive board from every manufacturer as a superset of every cheaper board from every other manufacturer.
But also, here's a simpler/cheaper solution than routing the organ through a separate rotary sim and reverb... you can add an external reverb on the main outs (assuming you don't need different reverb on the organ than you do on your other sounds... which you shouldn't, if you're using the reverb to simulate a "room" for your instrument to be playing in). Also, if you happen to be putting your Nord through a mixer or amp that has reverb in it, you can get your post-rotary reverb that way, too.
It's actually easier to add the reverb you want to the current NS3 setup than it would be to add a pre-rotary reverb to a model that did it the other way. I think Nord's idea was to allow you to be more faithful to the reverb of the Hammonds that had reverb built in (though they don't specifically model a spring reverb). Remember, a post-everything reverb was originally designed to make you think you were in a big room... and when you play a gig, you usually are.
Personally, I tend not to use reverb at my gigs except for special effects, because I don't need reverb to do the job of a room, I can have the room do the job of the room. The only time I usually add it is when I'm playing an outdoor gig. But if you just happen to like the effect, as I said, you can always use a separate external reverb somewhere in your chain.
