If I visualize walking up a staircase, I'd much prefer them clockwise so that I can touch the center with my right hand when walking up, for some additional stability.
Also, much staircases I know are clockwise. Which is also my theory for this myth, most staircases were build clockwise simply because most were already build clockwise. It fits Okkam's razor.
