Yes, like Mutt said, it would be a clearance problem with the blade to tail. It's only an issue to new pilots IMO. Once you get used to flying it, it's like flying anything else so why bother even trying to change the design?
You said you instruct "now in the 44 as well," which implies that it is a fairly new machine to you? You'll notice the more you fly it the less it'll be an issue and as you see your students progress, you'll see it's of little issue to them as well... especially if they come from the 22 into the 44.
