Love it. So hilarious to see that Millenials and Gen Z come around to something that those of who grew up in the 60s and 70s were already aware of thanks to the comedy of Professor Backwards.

When I was a systems analyst we always started with "where do I want to go". There was often pressure on the programmers, impatient managers would ask, "Why isn't Annie coding yet?" Experienced programmers, those who did the best work, always started by taking the time to get clear about what the finished product should look like.

And - children learning to write often write backwards or upside down. My daughter wrote upside down and backwards. I had to hold it upside down and look in a mirror to read it. This isn't a clever trick - it is how they see things.
