Reply to comment by Lord_Gadget in If the left side of your brain controls the right side of your body and vice versa, then what does that mean about people who are left handed? by Reflector368
This question is about the left side of your brain controls the right side of your body and vice versa - which I believe is evidenced from cases where people have brain-injury on one side, and lose control of the other side of their body.
This is completely different to the bogus concept of "right-brained and left-brained people" where one dominant side is supposedly more creative and the other more analytical - which at best is just a lazy psychological metaphor.

Correct, this is why I put in the qualifier at the end about the question from a "pure functionality standpoint".
It's just the dominant neural pathway and really nothing more.
