Never underestimate the power of tradition. The US Army was segregated until the Korean War and fought the idea of women in combat even longer. Back in anceint times lefties were considered devil spawn. "Sinister" is Latin for left.
Also, just because something isn't used often doesn't mean it's not a consideration. Fire exits and heart attack kits don't get used every day, but we get annoyed if a place doesn't have them.
