So, what's the high value perspective that leads to penguins always riding bicycles from left to right?

To display the chain. Just search for used bicycles on some online marketplace and you'll see the majority of them are shown with the chain facing towards the camera.

Well, the drive system, not the chain specifically but yes.

It's actually much less complicated that even that. Consider that there are only two possible sides to show, and one of the sides has the drivetrain on it, whereas the other has basically nothing of importance. It's not much of a choice at all.
