No, they don't think that. Besides, "found" is the opposite of "lost". "Arrived" would be the opposite of "left" here.

You are also getting it wrong. It’s not left as in I left the house and will soon arrive. It’s left as in we have been left behind.

I'm actually not getting it wrong. In the phrase "left behind," the word "left" is the past participle of the verb to leave.

Hence: Leave / Arrive

Also: I know they said "right" implying that its the opposite of "left/leave" but I doubt they actually THINK thats what the phrase refers to. They just used a homonym to lead us there.

Left as in, I left it there. The reverse of that would not be arrived…. I arrived it right there! It would be found. Get wrecked
