Is writing with both hands the new reading?

  1. It proves you're paying attention.
  2. At the end of the book, you get a free copy of the same book. Early piracy.

I wonder if the painter was unable to write, and figured the really good writers could even do it with both hands. At the same time...

I guess there's always the chance the painter didn't know what they were doing... but all the weird details in this one smell more like AI slop than painter quirkiness to me.

Like, inconsistent margins, writing with both hands, books stored with the back facing down, the randomly placed studs on the books, and text in the tapestry that are just random characters.
