As I am sure you know -
if you generate experimental phases from isomorphous or anomalous
scatterers the differences between the reflection pairs can be equally well
described by sites at (x,y,z) or (-x,-y,-z) .
In addition many spacegroups allow coordinates to be related to several
alternative ori
The -origin-hand option is also useful for comparing molecular replacement
solutions that may have different origins.
I think the slides in Andrey Lebedev's presentation help to visualise this
problem (specifically slides 49 & 50).

I don't know for sure, but I think the -origin-hand thing would be for heavy
atom work where both enantiomers of the solution can fit the data. Cheers,
