OK. I take the mesial out first and then place an East-West elevator
down into the mesial socket to engage the distal root at the apex. A
flick of the wrist and its out.

My rationale

The distal root is more cured than the mesial and therefore is more
vulnerable to my elevator, than doing it the reverse way.
