Right - anyone who deals with chiral spaces learns whatever convention is used
for that system.
There is a "Right-hand rule" for physics (electromagnetism), engineering, math,
architecture, etc.
The left hand rule for POV-ray ought to be just as straightforward.
*** Point the left thumb in the +axis direction, curl the fingers, and that's
the positive direction of rotation. ***
A picture or two may be a nice addition, but I don't think anything needs to be
added to the text or changed.
