I had a friend who time to time had to call people on the phone and
have them explain where is right and where is left, and then she

I suggest that [trigger] help feature an image of an arrow (<---) to
reinforce the idea of "right to left".

[trigger]
is important, but only when objects don't have enough outlets
themselves.
[unpack 0 0 0] already has three outlets that, just like [t f f f]
fire from
left to right, so triggering explicitly is not needed.
Oops. Please invert: "just like [t f f f] fires from right to left".
71 of 364 (19.5%) college professors and 311 of 1185 (26.2%) college
students
said that they occasionally, frequently or all of the time had
difficulty when
they had to quickly identify right from left.
