That's what PlayStation calls them. Xbox calls them LSB and RSB (Left/Right stick button). Nintendo has no name for them, they just refer to them as "clicking the left/right stick". Also Nintendo calls the bumpers L and R, and the triggers ZL and ZR.
Not ALL the time. For the most part, you use your left thumb on the left analog stick and the D-Pad, and your right thumb on the right analog stick.

Historic order. L1 and R1 (LB and RB) first appeared in the Super Nintendo ( 1991), L2 and R2 (LT and RT) made their debut in the PlayStation (1994) and L3 and R3 came out first in the PlayStation 2 (2000), I think.
I can also twist my ankles like that painlessly. But I can't touch my toes with my finger tips without bending my knees at all, best I can do is like 10 inches away.

I grew up in a border town in northern Mexico. We got a bunch of the TV channels from the US town across the border. I learned English watching those American channels.
This is what I used to do until my bank stopped supporting Zelle on the mobile website.
