Per Steve Cramer:
but the shaft will still have the indexing offset.

From context, it sounds like "indexing" is some irregularity built into the loom
so that the user can feel the orientation of the blade.

It might also be referred to as ovaling of the shaft.

If that's true, do most paddles have this feature?

Just checked the paddles in the garage: 3 WW (1 Werner, 1 Whetstone, 1
Harmony), 5 touring (1 Rough Stuff, 1 Swift, 1 Cricket, 1 Harmony, 1
Whetstone). All are right hand control; all but the Rough Stuff have
left hand ovaling.
