Was wondering why "left-grouping rule" was chosen as the default for tanru? 

I ran though random examples of using two adjectives in my head and they are almost always right-grouping. "big red truck", "bright yellow star", "little lost ant"

this is left grouping with both seltau made equal:

lo barda je cunre karce

 

lo barda je xunre karce 

sorry for the mistype

lo carmi je plexu tarci

lo cmalu je farcri manti

 

, there are exceptions, like "dark roast coffee", but even then the right-grouping would be okay. But in the other examples left-grouping would be just flat wrong.
