[Avodah] Ta'amai d'kra - why do we put tephillin on our weaker arm

[via Avodah]

so I remain with my question - in terms of ta'amai mitzvos why do  we put
tephillin on our weaker arm?

Do "ta'amei hamitzvos" /have/ to be deep and meaningful?  Are they  allowed 
to be just practical?  The most obvious reason is that it is much  easier 
to do something with your stronger hand than with your weaker hand --  hence 
you use your stronger hand to put on your tephillin.
