Aha gotcha, so because of the signs of charge and direction, the current will be positive no matter which side it is “leaving”. But it’s just harder to stay consistent? Sorry for asking so many questionsIf you are being careful to be mathematically rigorous and stay in conformance with the definitions of charge, voltage, energy, power, and all of the other quantities, then yes.
If you are a typical electron-flow aficionado, then no because you will be sloppy with your definitions (mostly because you don't give them any thought) and will get in the habit of throwing about magical mystery minus signs in order to get things to work out the way you want them to.
