You got it backwards there for English bottom brackets. From the 12 o’clock position, that removes the cups. The cups rotate towards the back of the bike to install. The left follows the right hand screw rule and the right follows the left hand screw rule. In other words, the left is right and the right is wrong.

Glad to help. To be honest, I have to think about it every time I work on a bottom bracket.
