The plumber who fitted it maybe believed that this would work as secondary return, or kinda mixer haha,
 
This pipework configuration is proven to double the Hot water output especially when a vertical cylinder is mounted horizontally
 
That's surely going to be a double draw off when you open taps? Going to get two levels of water & perhaps temperatures mixing. Never seen that before. DIY perhaps.
 
Maybe he didn't have any clips in the van, so thought he'd support the pipe using an otherwise unused tapping?
Or.... Maybe he's just a rubbish plumber? I bet Roger Bisby is pooping himself!
 
Just in case one of the hot water draw offs gets blocked
 
I thnk your all missing the point, john Lewis do some marvellous products.
