I wonder if the heads were originally refered to
as the 'up' and
'down' head. That would have been conventional at one time and
refers to the direction that the heads face. So the 'up' head is
the lower one, the 'down# haed is the upper one.
If this got edited by somebody unfamiliar with the terms, the 'up'
head may well have become the 'upper' head, hence the confusion
