This is how I remember it:
...Exercising Muscles do the Right thing: they shift the curve to the Right
and everything increases (Temperature: 2,3DPG : P CO2 ) except the pH.
....CO and HbF don't do the right thing: they shift to Left and Lower everything except the pH .
Basically Kaplan.

Absolutely correct.But how will shifting of the curve to the left affect affinity for o2.

When you have affinity for something, you keep it.
Shifting to the left, increases the affinity for O2, reduces delivering of O2 to tissues.
