That's not what I said, but it _is_ the only scenario that's completely
spelled out in the specs.
One other really useful aspect of OTG is power. If you have a battery
powered device connecting to another powered device it is useful to have the
A end pointed at the powered device.
So for instance if you have a battery powered PC and wish to connect it to a
powered printer or a display device it would be nice if the A connector goes
into the "peripheral" and the b into the "computer" that way the computer
would get power and the device could hand off the awesome responsibility of
knowing what to do to the computer.
