I was wondering why right-y is so prominent, but if there are physical limitations during mating between left vs right then one would naturally emerge. No mentions of alternate snail species in the article with left-y shells, but apparently left vs right shells are distinguishing features of gastropods (land and sea snails).

An interesting natural constraint on design. Edit: and by design I mean constraint on emergence / naturally restrained emergence, not some externally imposed design.
