No, I’m saying two things, people were accurately describing what right hand doors and left hand doors are. No one said anything about reverse. I’m also saying that as a contractor that has worked for at least a dozen other contractors and ordered and installed hundreds of doors, no one uses that language. For inside houses it simply doesn’t matter. A left hand door and a right hand reverse are the same thing. For outside doors, you specify inswing or outswing in addition to the hand. You might sell doors, but you’ve clearly never installed one.

I don't sell doors, I sell locks. And I've installed many of them. I know that inswing vs outswing doesn't matter on most interior doors, unless of course it has a mortise lock. Which is pretty common in high end homes.

Sounds like we agree. To a degree it matters for locks but most are reversible so it still really doesn’t.
