Errrrrrrrr nooooooooo lol, they did design a left handed piano once, with high pitched notes at the left end.  I doubt it went into production though.  Left or Right handed, playing the piano is about getting both hands as well developed as you can.  Any left handed pianist can play FI with incredible ease if they are good enough, I'm left handed and not a great pianist and I can sight read it at just under half tempo.  But since you asked the Chopin Etude 10-12 I think it is, is what everyone is gonna say.

Ya but it's so hard to keep my left hand at the same pace as my right hand(im rigtht handed)

in one of my ABRSM exams the inventor of this piano was my examiner!!!
anyway.... theres the Ravel left hand concerto... but really.... Im a lefty and i think that on the piano my right hand is just as strong as my left hand. I am not ambidextrous in any way. I suppose if you play the piano long enough being left handed never becomes an issue... except sometimes when my teacher tells me to bring out the right hand tune, my left hand gets louder and louder!!! i think it overrides what im telling my right hand to do.

Then keep your right hand at the same pace as your left hand.

Best wishes,

Im a left handed pianist, but ive never had any trouble with it. I mean, my hands are different in that i can do some things more easily with one - e.g. my left hand is probably stronger, good for deep booming chords etc. but my right is more agile, better at trills or fast paced melodies, lighter things, (leggiero etc.) but i dont think thats because im left handed, i think it would be like that anyway - both my right hand and left hand are trained for certain things, but not because Ive deliberately trained them that way, but because over the 9 or however many years i played, alllll the pieces ive played have made them like that.

For piano i dont think it matters too much - your different hands get trained for certain techniques but i never found that one was "weaker" than the other. But maybe when you play other instruments it makes a difference - i play the accordion as well - now it has the keyboard on the right and the buttons on the left - probably its made like that because thats whats easier for most people.
