I only noticed when I tried using CAM-gener
Horizontals typically follow the same right-hand rule as any other machine,
it's just that the coordinates are turned normal to the spindle direction
(z axis)

I try to not look at the moving bits - that gets confusing..

Lol - I always make sure that when I am visualizing a piece of graph paper
on the machine - when I command a positive for both x and y - the tool
would move up and to the right on the paper.. (and Z negative gets the
tool closer to the part)

I only noticed when I tried using CAM-generated code on a
non-symmetrical part with the origin
I bet that there are a lot of horizontals out there configured backwards. (Had
never really thought about it myself, never worked with one.)
