Not only "lack of pushing". Someone looked into it and concluded that rotated screen is significantly less practical than left-hand using the current solution.
You mean someone left-handed concluded such a thing?
I am left handed myself and would kill someone for saying this :-)
Yes buttons feel different but it is not bad at all. Definitely better
than nothing (which is the 'current solution' you mentioned). Also there
could be issues with display backlight when display is upside down and
probably font subpixel rendering would need to be aware of the rotation
but there is nothing so bad it would deserve 'significantly less
practical' label. I would say slightly less practical.
I would not use this mode everytimes but when I need to use both keys
and stylus at the same time I would use it for sure because there is
simply no other sane way.
I can understand that this may have low priority since left-handed
people are minority. But I really can't accept this 'we know better than
you what you want' attitude.
Also when talking about this - from screenshots of new device it looks
like new model is even worse in this regard. The best for all (including
left handed people) would be to have exactly the same set of buttons on
both sides. One could choose primary side in control panel and have some
less important actions mapped to the other one (like those currently
mapped to press and hold action - page down in browser or pdf viewer
mapped directly to button would be handy). Would be also great for gaming.
