As I don't follow the written description, it must mean that I refuse to follow rules when I disagree with them.
I trust that your training invokes you to use a different coloured pen whenever you write a cross

I was also confuddled by that description.

Re: X marks the spot
Actually, when I was teaching I would often adapt my earlier description:
Top left to bottom right, then bottom left to top right
to
Bottom left to top right
then, shortly afterwards, top left to bottom right
on the occasions when I had given a tick and then realised it wasn't quite correct after all.

I'm left handed also Percy, but find number eight more comfortable...

Another "lefty" here with No. 7, but it just feels "right".

Left-handedness is a sign of the devil.
