I learned what a joystick was from my grandpa who used it exclusively to play WWI and WWII flight simulators. Almost all of my use of a joystick before the age of 5 was on one of those games.

Today I am equally comfortable with joysticks set either way. Guess it's just a personal preference?

Edit: maybe it's because thumbsticks feel a bit inherently different to me because of the different grip.
