As one of the comments at Wired points out, the left side of the brain specializes in verbal processing.

Thus, it's a confounding factor that prevents us from concluding that the left side is "more amenable". That is possible, but not indicated.

Talk into the right ear and you send your words into a slightly more amenable part of the brain.

I urge you to try this at home.
