How does a Flatworms anterior-posterior orientation affect their movement compared to the movement of more primitive organisms?

Flatworms are themselves a rather primitive organism. However, having the orientation of anterior-posterior allows them to move their anterior towards food and their posterior away from irritants, which are movements that organisms without this orientation can't do.
