When the chips are first made (blanks with inserts, but no inlays, they are not sorted into stacks where all the inserts are aligned in the same oredr. Instead, the blanks are probably in some sort of tub and statistically speaking, every blank plucked from the tub has a 50/50 chance of having the inserts appear blue/yellow, blue/yellow and blue/yellow (clockwise). This randomness will continue when the inlays are applied (each side is different).
The final product, for each different chips, will statisically produce half in the blue/yellow sequence and half in the yellow/blue sequence. Theorhetically, your distribution of yellow/blue to blue yellow for the 7 chips should have been 3 and 4 or 4 and 3, but randomness is random and you just happened to get an excess of blue/yellow.
All of this means that in all probability, half of each different chip has half of the inserts (when viewed from the Vegas Vic side) appearing in the blue/yellow sequence.
To ensure the same alignment for all chips requires additional effort by the workers and therefore additional charges to make the chips. While possible and that one chip was done wrong, I would suspect that no additional labor was requested and there is a 50/50 distruibution of the sequence for all of those chips.
