The eternal struggle between theoretical physics and practical engineering! While physicists obsess over electron flow direction (negative to positive, contrary to conventional current that flows positive to negative), electrical engineers are just like "does the circuit work? cool." The convention was established before we knew electrons were negative, and now we're stuck with this delightful contradiction. Kirchhoff probably rolls in his grave every time an engineer shrugs off the discrepancy while successfully building something that works anyway. Physics purists in shambles!
