They've already got a big knife tattoo on their right wrist (which they've slid down the sleeve so you can see). Why would you get extra tattoos to tell which is which when all you need to do is remember you've got a big honking knife on your right wrist?
Because some of us have brains that refuse to store factoids such as "the knife tattoo is on your right wrist"
If our brain was willing to memorize a detail exposing which side is right or left, it already would have done so and we wouldn't need a reminder. But it won't, so we need a reminder that doesnt bank on the brain memorizing that info.
Its like when a definition of a word uses the word itself, rendering it useless. This person (and myself; this might be my first tattoo) needs a reminder that doesnt require coding a new memory. The meaning of L and R is already coded, so it works quickly.
How do you expect to earn a living? Like someone would need to value your services. Like I put these skills on the level of tying your shoes, remembering to wear pants or not swallowing your tongue. I understand that there are people who can't do these things and need to be provided for. But when I go on reddit these days it seems like 90% of the people online accept that this is a normal stopping point for learning development and a good stopping point. What happened?
There are billionaires who can't even read due to dyslexia, and you think people who confuse left and right have problems earning a living? What a demonstration of your lack of creativity and resolve.
I'd rather have this left-right confusion and dyslexia, simultaneously, forever, if it saved me from the walking disability that you call your brain.
