When you see someone walking on the street on your left-side (relative bearing between 180 and 360), you don't turn your head from side-to-side (bearing) any bit differently whether he or she is moving away or comming closer to you (which is due to the 'Angle On that person's Belly'
).
The problem with this day-to-day analogy, is that you are physically not able to rotate your head beyond your rear, like periscopes can do, and have to turn it in a counterclockwise fashion from your front.
p.s. maybe it helps if you post a screenshot showing how your angle plotting doesn't match.
