Have you considered a sliding mitre bench saw?

FWIW I think the handedness will still be a problem, especially if you
have a weaker right hand (rather than just a less dextrous one). The point
is, the blade is well offset to the right side of the baseplate, and the
motors always hang off to the left so as not to obstruct your view of the
cut.

I'm firmly right handed (my father was somewhat ambidextrous). But I took
up eating "left handed" when I was very small, this just seemed the
sensible way to me. It is also how Americans eat
