Sketch axis orientation

Question. When is horizontal not horizontal??

Answer. When Autodesk decide to change it to vertical!!

 

Create a new sketch on XY plane (FRONT on view cube) and horizontal is left to right & vertical is up and down.

Create a new sketch on XZ plane (TOP on view cube) and horizontal is left to right; consistant with above.

Create a new sketch on YZ plane (RIGHT on view cube) and horizontal is now up and down!!

 

Can we please have some consistancy with the co-ordinate system of sketches please.
