I doubt if the Roman army was as monolithic as that (although I know I am opening a can of worms here). I suspect the sword worn on the left was an oriental fashion (not only shown in Adamklissi but also in Hatra, Palmyra and Dura Europos) that gradually moved into the west.
Thank you Crispus for alerting us to this evidence in Josephus.
