1. Do you know why the left side of the road is the right side?

2. Most people are right handed. In the past, if you are a knight sitting on a horse with a lance in your right hand, and you want to hit your enemy you must be on the left side of the road.
Conclusion; left is right.

3. Another conclusion; if you are bigger (>) than your enemy, you can stay (if you want) on the right side of the road, but if you are smaller (<) than your enemy it is better to go to the left side of the road. First evaluate your situation and than take a conclusion.

Contraposition:

1. The left side of the road is the right side when the viewport contains an odd number of mirrors.

2. Multivariate objective functions, subject to many constraints, don't always converge on an optimality. Your conclusion isn't defensible. Left is simply, not right.

3. Strictly speaking, if you evaluate your situation, thinking left is right, when left is wrong, and the forces interact, the outcome isn't guaranteed. If you are "civil," the passing may be congenial.

Summary:
Extending your conclusion in example 2, to modern combatants, past horses and rocket powered anti-missile missile systems, to laser lances, any delay time imposed by requiring an extra handling process to get true left or right guidance, may be at a cost: erreur fatale.

May I suggest that modeling these problems may be better suited in a new thread? I started this bug report, and feel that Parisse has very adequately dealt with the issue. Agreement has been reached, for this CAS, it's simply not worth further pursuit.
