Right or wrong, for several years I've verbalized 0-2 by saying, "Two strikes. Oh-two!" It's quick, non-offensive, and not likely cause for someone to pop off with a verbal comment.
As for the reasoning behind showing the count with strikes on the right hand ... I was taught many years ago that was so the scoreboard operator (who is behind the umpire) would see the count the same order it is represented on the scoreboard.
