View is Mirrored in Revit

I know that you shouldn't be able to mirror views in Revit, so I'm trying to understand what's going on. I'm showing walls for this example, while my user was trying to show sections in a model in place element. 

 

This is my floor plan.

This is the section in an elevation.

This is what the section looks like.

I do understand how to avoid this and what work around to do, but I can't understand why it's mirroring the view.  

Am I missing something? Any ideas?

Because you actually look it up from below.  It is NOT a reflected ceiling plan, note the keyword 'reflected'.

Your section is looking up so it will be mirrored. Flip the section to down and it will match
