I also suffer from left/right confusion, and always have to pause to
think about which is the right(!) word before uttering it. :-D  Would
compass directions be more helpful? (wvalue vs. evalue) Or would it
suffer from the same problem?

(One could retroactively rationalize it as *w*ritable value vs.
*e*phemeral value. :-P)
