USB-C internally routes sbu1 to sbu2 in the default orientation. This single comment should reduce the confusion about meaning of the flipped vs normal OBD-C .
Background:
I was designing OBD2 adapter for OBD-C and needed to understand exactly relationship between OpenPilot buses, STM32 peripherals, and harness buses.
Unfortunately there was conflicting information from the community. Ultimately, finding out how USB-C cables are built was the key to understanding. Also I can confirm accuracy of the comma documentation.
