Skyward Sword really drives home how terrible it is when you want to view the Help menu. Reaching for the center buttons on a dual analogue controller is natural, you're reaching across the controller. It's not even that far from the face buttons. Besides that, usually the center buttons are the start/select buttons -- the sort of things you probably don't mind loosening your grip on the controllers to press. Odds are if you're hitting the start button you might even be about to put the controller down.
This is the natural and recommended way to hold a Wii Remote:
And this is an artist's rendition of trying to press the '2' button from that position:
To simulate this position without holding a Wii Remote, here is a practice exercise for anyone who wants to test my claim. Touch your thumb to the tip of your middle finger; this is what pressing the center button of a dual analogue controller feels like. Now try touching your thumb to the circled part of your hand. This is what trying to press the 2 button on a Wii Remote feels like.
Basically you have mutant hands if this is comfortable for you, I'm sorry to be the one to break it to you.
