Awesome Bag!
In preparation for a campaing and kayaking trip to Vancouver, I bought my wife a Heratio 15 and another brand named after a way up Everest for myself. She loved her Heratio and was comfy in just her underwear. I had to put on longjohns and socks to get warm, and one of the cross baffles basically did not have any down in it!
So, when we got back, I disposed of my NF bag and got myself a Ratio. Aaaaahhh, pure bliss! Super warm and comfortable; just plain perfect. Couldnt possibly recommend it more highly.

Light but not warm enough for me.
While I love the size and weight, I have to admit it is not as warm as I hoped. It is rated for 15 degrees F. I took it camping in mid-October here. There was frost when we woke up. I got in my car to warm-up, where the car themometer said it was 30F. But I was very cold all night, too cold to relax at all, even though I was on top of a Thermarest, and was wearing a hat, socks, polypro pants, and 2 layers on my core. I am skeptical that this was tested at the rated temperature. I am 57, and I have camped a LOT, so I have to admit that my synthetic rectangular LumberJack is heavy but warm. I recommend you adjust your temperature expectations by at least 20 degrees.

Can two of these sleeping bags be zipped together? Is there a right and left hand zipper option?
The men's Ratio is a left hand zip bag. We do not carry a men's right hand zip version, but this sleeping bag can be zipped to a Mountain Hardwear women's right hand zip bag.

Does the bag come with a compression bag? If not what size compression bag would it take? Any idea how small it would be compressed down too?
The Ratio 15 comes with a stuff sack and not a compression sack. A 16 liter compression sack would be a good size for the Ratio.

With a compression sack, you can get the bags stuffed volume from 12 liters to 8.4 liters.

How long can this bag be compressed for?
There is no time limit for how long a bag can stay compressed. However, for optimal lifespan, we recommend not compressing a bag for longer than necessary. Sleeping bags should be stored loosely in a storage sack to prolong the lifespan of the fill materials.

If you use a compression sack in place of a stuff sack, for backpacking during the day, and it is opened each night, is the loft is any way compromised?
​The down will maintain its loft. Shake the bag out when you are ready to use it. Do not store it in a compression stuff sack or a stuff sack for long periods. Lay flat or store in a large storage bag when at home.

It's weirdly heteronormative to have only left zippered bags for men and right zippered bags for women. I can't zip my bag to my female partners? You need to update your manufacturing and purchase policies to reflect the diversity of your customers.
I'm not sure what your question is here. I would recommend purchasing a sleeping bag manufactured with a left hand zipper and one with a right hand zipper and adjust your weirdly heteronormative policies to reflect your outdoor sleeping needs. You can also try googling "custom sleeping bag", you can design a bag that meets your specific sleeping needs VS: everyone else adjusting to meet yours.

Are you going to have Regular Right Zip available, soon? For both Ratio 15 and Heratio 15, I think you should have both right and left zip so that man's and woman's can be zipped together. My niece has Left-Zip Heratio 15 and I am looking for a Right-Zip.
​We carry sleeping bags that have a left hand zippers for men, right hand for women. So you can zip a men's to a women's sleeping bag. We will not be adding the opposite side zippers to our inventory.

Is this bag a good option for side-sleepers?

Are the lengths correct for regular and long sizes? Per Mountain Hardwear website and others, the regular size is 78 inches and the long is 84 inches.
The lengths listed in the specs on REI.com are referring to the height of the user. For example, the regular length bag fit a person up to 72 inches (6ft) tall. The long version fit a person up to 78 inches (6'6") tall.
