Left hand on the 12 - why?

So why do most people drive with their left hand at the 12:00 position on the steering wheel? Is it really that comfortable? Do people realize how easy it is to over correct or have less control of their vehicle when their left hand is in that driving position? My favorite is when teenagers do it and drape their wrists over the wheel, so they are not even holding on to the steering wheel.

Normally, I would just keep my comments to myself, but today I passed a really nice Black Cayman S on the highway, and he was in the position.... My first thought was, he obviously bought his Porsche for the wrong reasons.
