Are you a programmer? I've never struggled with them either, but I've had a lot of exposure to them due to programming since I was like 11

I am a software dev, I've been exposed to these since I was 5 and I've always thought they should be reversed, I know the logic is "bigger gap, bigger number" and never make a mistake, but deep down I know it would be more logical to "point the arrow toward the bigger number", it just makes sense to me.
