Nope, the bottom right quadrant is the acceptable one. Z is up and follows the right-hand rule. I will die on this hill.
you'll get bitten during projection when depth is converted to 2D screen coordinates, which is X and Y. Better do it right from the start.
Minecraft ruined me as a kid. I'm still mad that so many softwares use Z as up. I'm still not happy about it.
Y up feels much more comfortable for me.
Y up is also the standard in 2D graphs, so it makes sense that Z is depth.
I don't think anyone got my joke 🤷
