It would help keep from smearing everything you've just written. It would be a mental challenge to reverse everything as you write though.

Only 10% of the population is lefty so it was more out of necessity and sanitary reasons than anything else (wiping your bum with the left hand). That is why being lefty was considered "wrong" or "evil" and often teachers used to hit students hands with rulers if they went to their left hands.

Yeah. I loved him in Titanic (Though Johnny Depp is a much better actor).
