Not sure if true or clickbait, but if true it means we'll eventually lose clockwise and counter-clockwise as descriptive references.
Or the phrases stick around and people in the future just wonder what a clock has to do with rotation.
Yep. Like uppercase and lowercase letters. Cause back when type was metal the uppercase letters were in the upper case. And the lowercase letters were in the lower drawers.
Likely this.
