It just depends on software i.e. there are e-readers that allow left-to-right as well as right-to-left swiping/tapping, like there are apps that allow us to choose between L-R, R-L, T-B (top-bottom) e.g. SideBooks, pdf/comic reader for iOS.

So that Jews, Arabs, Chinese and others can select their preferred direction.
