    Also, at this point, it might just ingrained in people there is a L-side and a R-side which correspond with their equivalent of left and right even without knowing English. It can be abstracted as consistent symbols if nothing else.

      Now the question becomes, is there a language where the word for “left” starts with R and “right” starts with L?
