Yes, I fully realize that.
Just another unofficial reference card [0], by Caio Rordrigues at that time, that again states that:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+begin_right
This text is
aligned to the right!
#+end_right
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
These persons are probably consider themselves highly familiar with Org, yet they have been mistaken. What to say about novices! So the absence of this feature is indeed highly unobvious. That’s the only point I am trying to make.

If there is no plan to make into default as with centring, a warning might be very apt.
Thank you again for your work on the Org.
