...it is quite possible that deploying thrust reversers on both engines with the left inoperable could swing it to the right (physics, people).
Agree. Scenario: Number 1 fails, crew tries to stop with reverse. With number 2 the only operating engine, differential reverse thrust causes aircraft to turn to the right.
