Exactly!!!

This reminds me of a story from my childhood:

My 2 grandpas were helping my dad build a deck on our house when I was about 8 or 9. My job was to fetch things they needed. One of my grandpas needed me to hand him nails for the decking boards.

"Andy, I need a good nail"
"Here ya go, Grandpa"
"No, that one won't work. It's for hammering the board up from UNDER the deck."

It took me a few times until I learned to hand him the nail with the head facing up and the nail tip pointing down.

Grandpas are great.

ps... as for the point of this thread, I too think that this bent bit is a case of backwards-drilling. C'mon, we've all done it at least once. Foley Frozen students are no different.
