Here's what I learned on line. The weave/grain is also smoother. This and the salvage test confirms that indeed what I wanted, colors, texture, et al. Was the right side of the fabric!
I am right, they made it up wrong!
Step 2 Inspect the selvage
Fabric is rolled through various processes on rollers with pins which stick up to hold it in place. After the fabric is removed from the rollers holes are left in the selvage. When the fabric is placed on the rollers there are prongs which poke through. Because the right side up for printing and finishing applications, the prongs first go through the wrong side and come out through the right side. The prongs go in the wrong side smoothly and punch out the right side of the fabric, leaving a rough hole on the right side. So the right side is the side with the rough holes. However, if you wash the fabric this may no longer be visible. Generally the selvages appear less finished on the wrongs sides and are smoother on the right side. Inspect the selvages for nubs, slubs, or irregularities, and for smoothness.
