As far as how often people change hands, it is only a tiny bit more awkward to flip the device as you switch hands as it is to simply switch hands.

The ergonomics are all in compromise to the dual battery system. For some people, it may happen to be more comfortable to hold.
I think the Oasis would be awkward for me with the weight on one side. Obviously people who always hold it that way will feel differently. I like the weight evenly distributed so I can hold it in a variety of different ways. I know I wouldn't want to stop reading and flip it to switch hands. Since battery life isn't that important to me, I'll stick with my Paperwhite.
