If that is in fact the case, or more generally if there's any other evidence that there are multiple interpretations of what the "analogous rules" are, then of course I would suggest spelling out those analogous rules, e.g. retaining the existing "Analogous rules ..." words but appending a colon and the full rule. If the analogous rules are formed by swapping the words "left" and "right" throughout, then every mention of "left" or "right" in the rules is balanced by a corresponding rule with "left" and "right" swapped, in which case there is no left bias. pjrm.
