Ambisinistrous

What's the opposite of the opposite of Ambidextrous you ask?

Well according to Answers.com (link in title above) its:

Ambisinistrous
clumsy, maladroit (the opposite of ambidextrous): ambilævous

More info on dextrous / sinistrous / ambi
- Dextrous -
Using the right hand more skillfully or easily than the left


- Sinistrous -
On the left side; left

- Ambi -
Both

But then wouldn't "Ambisinistrous" mean the same thing as "Ambidextrous"?
