What you mean to say is "Conventional Current flow is positive to
negative...."


Yes.

Current flow is positive to negative - that is the convention by
which directional components are described and illustrated.


When I did my basic electronics training, "Electron Current Flow" was
the method used, except for about two minute mention of Conventional
current flow!


So you were taught to mentally rotate all the arrows on transistors and
diodes ? Sounds like hard work to me.

Electrons actually
travel from neg to pos, but that is irrelevant. This has nothing to
do with 'ground'.

Just forget about electron flow direction, it will just distract you.


Big call, Geoff, to forget Electron Current flow.


No. Not unless you are designing semiconductors.
