I suppose it is a matter of your perspective, but to my mind it does spin the same direction, and is a stroke a brilliance! As long as you turn each ring the same number of clicks (stops) the same direction, your exposure is equivalent. Makes it easy to change speed or f-stop and keep the same exposure value. I suspect this is what Miatani had in mind.

I am curious why you would want it to go the other way.

it would spin the same direction as the SS ring.

I wonder why he did that.
