it's not just left vs right hand. i don't mind using both hands. there are positions on the keyboard that are easier to access than others. for example, home row keys are the easiest to press while keys near the edges of the keyboard above and below the pinky are more difficult. as a dvorak typist for 20 years, it seems to me that dvorak maps frequently pressed keys and combinations of keys in zones that are easier to access compared to qwerty. over my lifetime, i'm certain this has paid dividends.
dvorak was optimized for comfort while qwerty was optimized for a mechanical device. dvorak is like shitting on a bidet and to me it's very strange that folks prefer to smear poop on themselves with paper.
