I think the left to right or right to left is probably a very opinionated thing (and I think Araxis, another tool I’ve used does it the other way around).
However the colour coding is something that should properly communicate what is going on - and I’m curious if anyone else has noticed it seems to be wrong (it sounds like for you its definitely confusing). I think there are known bugs in iceberg (not sure how much on the diff view - I also noticed that class comments don’t seem to appear in the diff and I also see spurious method categorisation differences as well).
