Scouring more than a century of studies, Cornell researchers found left-handers are actually underrepresented in the most creative fields, contrary to popular perception.
I think the issue is the study treated it as a binary thing…
Handedness isn’t binary, very few things are when talking about human anatomy.
Like, 4 wheel drive is an equal 50/50 split. Then obviously full front/rear drive.
But “all wheel drive” can be anything from 80/20 to 60/40, or theoretically any random ratio.
So while people who prefer their left hand. There’s a difference between a sleight preference and someone who’s right hand is so useless it’s easier to hold a guitar upside down.
Those people at the extreme end may be more creative when isolated out as a subgroup
Or maybe they just stand out holding the guitar upside down, making people see a pattern that isn’t really there. For instance, while Jimi Hendrix played the guitar upside down, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck did not.

You didn’t understand my comment
But instead of asking questions you…
Just did whatever it was you tried to do there.
If you want to get better, ask more questions. Of someone else, obviously.
