SH4 Map tools

Can anybody out there explain to me why the Compass Tool and the compass rose version of the Ruler Tool both have 180 degrees at the top instead of at the bottom? E.g. If a ship is actually sailing due East, plotting its course with either of the above would give a reading of 270 degrees - in other words, due West. Which would be kinda awkward if as a result you pointed your submarine in entirely the wrong direction to intercept.
