Ah, I hoped it would cover a different angle. As a left-footed, right handed person, I was excited about how “learning to walk” affects handedness, but sounds like this research is more about how it evolved.
EDIT for info: My mother is left handed and my father right handed. Given that he worked a lot, I think I learned some things from my mother. I also use my cutlery “the wrong way around” and had to try writing with both hands because teachers suspected I was left handed, but dropped it at some point. Nowadays left hand writing looks like I am 10 years old ^^ Foot wise it was more clear though. I always preferred using my left leg.
Got a few confused looks in sports :P and was not very helpful for stuff like long jump were run up was always explained for right-footed only. I’ve added some additional information to my initial post.

My son is left handed since he was in the womb
How did you identify it?
he was sucking his left thumb in the scans and he would have spams while sleeping, just like me
Til! I thought it was either/or…
I have certain preferences for certain activities, I’m left handed for writing but right handed for lots of other stuff.
