I hope it is clear that changing the 'side' of the board
or the 'side' of the cable does NOT fix the inversion of
odd and even numbered pins that results from the unfortunate
layout of DIP to IDC headers. Do the thought experiment of
'sliding,' an IDC connector down to and around the end of the
cable, doesn't change pin-to-wire mapping.
