    What evolitionary pressure could there be for left- vs. right-handedness? I’d rather think it’s some obscure genetic placement mechanism, that one gets read earlier and overwrites the other in 90% of cases or something.

      That’s exactly why I was initially so intrigued by the heading:
      “What on earth could be the mechanism that a bug could have caused this??”

      But then I realized we were talking about entirely different kinds of bugs… ;-)
