I don't think the intent is to fix every issue, but rather to tell you if you are using busted translation tools. The thing about left-to-right/right-to-left is something that a non-native Arabic speaker may not even know to look out for, even though it is a core aspect of the way the language is written.

Author was more making the point that one occurs commonly and the other order should never occur as the other order would require connecting the letters. The stick character does not connect to the left, but will on the right if that letter connects to the left.
