| Nov 5, 2021 at 19:40 | comment | added | db48x | I stand by my answer that it is purely a matter of taste, but you’re welcome to answer as well if you can think of a better one. | |
| Nov 5, 2021 at 16:33 | comment | added | tkp | @NickD, you're probably right, from an SE point of view anyway (which, yes, is what matters here). That said, as the question's author I do take some value from db48x's quip. It really is possible that there is little or no significance in the choice I'm asking about, in which case, just as with a question like "Why, after pouring their milk into their tea, do some people stir clockwise, and some anti-clockwise?", a good, if not the best answer may well be what is tantamount to a verbal shrug. 🙂 | |
