Right-to-left languages don't make writing much easier. It certainly helps, but at least anecdotally, it's overstated how much more easy (how much easier? English is confusing) it is.

Chinese was traditionally written top-to-bottom, and I can see that making it more a matter of taste which hand you painted with.

Today it's always left-to-right, though.
