It's the same with those incredibly irritating people who hold their fork with their right hand and knife with their left hand. Why would one do such a thing?! Those are the true terrorists.

That’s life shakermaker - being incredibly irritated by others. Surely you don’t want the whole world to change to your way of thinking and acting do you?
For your information I have always held the fork in my left hand and knife in my right because that is the way I was taught and I’m right handed. So if some people hold the knife in their left hand and fork in the right it can only mean that they are left handed or trying to be contrary just to annoy you.
Go to any restaurant that has the tables laid out with cutlery, the knives will be on the right. It is convention. But if you ask the waiter to lay the table for left handed people, the waiter will oblige by reversing the cutlery.
It’s called “Live And Let Live”, a concept that seems to be alien to you.
