Yes, I agree that flying "wrong handed" is easy peasy in the cruise, especially in a fixed wing, more so if you trim the aircraft (I instructed on a centre throttled aircraft for about 1,000 hours and 3,000 or so in rotary). But hovering is a slightly different ball game when you try it the first time.

The trap still exists for those who haven't yet tried it.
