Do you still do the "L" thing with your hands to check left and right?
I often do it even though I usually already know before doing it. It just feels like a habit/sanity check.

every single time! i’ve done it often enough that i don’t need to physically move my hands any more though, i just visualize what my hands would look like if i were doing it. that said, even with that optimization it still takes me a couple seconds to decode a “left”/“right” instruction and figure out which side was actually meant.
