I don't see it that way, I see it left-blue, thus reversed. The plumber, who is supposed to be an expert witness, saw blue-left. Three people more (one was me), the same. In fact, these fixtures can be rotated in the sink hole before tightening the nut beneath, so that the handle faces right, front or left. In fact, once I tried all three positions to find out which was the most confortable in use. Front is uncomfortable, you risk wetting your arm. Left is good for left handed people. But in all cases I see the red dot on the right. Maybe psychologists will explain that there are two types of people depending on how we read those dots in kitchen taps. :-) -- Cheers, Carlos.
