Just had a thought....all things being equal and true for that study, you should be able to tell where you are w.r.t. the overall shape of the Universe from the handedness exhibited by the galaxies in your section of the Universe. Although you wouldn't be able to see the other sections of "Observable Universes" in the overall structure, you could theoretically define where you were by the amount of handedness asymmetry the galaxies exhibited in your own section. The further away from the universal "equatorial region" the greater the asymmetry between left and right handed galactic rotations. If this is correct, it may mean that a 7% asymmetry between left and right handed galaxies for our section puts us somewhere rather close to the "equator" of the overall Universe.
This is all depends on the Universe being a spherical object and that it spins.
