I guess I just don't delete stuff from left-to-right - most of the time I'm undoing a typo I've just typed, so backspace feel more appropriate. Otherwise decades of habit just has me put the cursor to the right of characters I want to remove. Again, I don't think either is more inherently correct, there's just what you're used to.

Unfortunately, Apple has decided that Backspace IS "more correct." Everyone else has been providing both keys for decades. If you do a lot of editing, and certainly programming, you quickly chafe at the lack of a Delete key. I've been using Karabiner on the Mac to remap F12 to be Delete, losing the Volume-up control in the process. Annoying, but worth it.
