Note that this command just makes the left hemisphere take precedence - you
said the overlap was in medial wall, which is more of an artifact of
processing than a structure of importance, so this should be fine.  The
surfaces shouldn't have any overlap on real structures, so ribbon
constrained surface to volume mapping should prevent any other serious
overlaps.
