These are all pretty great ideas. I'll add my own, SPOILERS obviously.

It felt like a missed opportunity to lose your left hand to the WAU, if you had lost your right hand it couldve been HANDled (sorry, not sorry) in a better way. First, when Simon-3 sticks his left hand in the WAU its obvious that something is gonna go wrong because every other animation is performed with your right hand throughout the game. It would've been much more surprising if this had been done with the right.

Second, your cursor could've been changed from a right hand that hovers over objects to a left hand, this wouldn't have required more than a couple seconds of work (mirror the icon) but wouldve served as a powerful and omnipresent reminder of the fact that you just lost your hand, as it stands in the game its only noticable when Simon uses ladders, or when he awkwardly flashes it when yelling at Catherine at the end. He never his left while talking in any other scene so this felt like a tacked on reminder more than anything else.
