Less than and Greater than symbols reversed.

Hi. I've come across more of an error than a bug, and it seems to only affect the Decider Combinator.
The < and > are reversed, where < is less than and > is more than, however in Factorio, this is reversed, and is rather confusing.
Please see the included links for supporting evidence.

I dont see the problem here?
your setup works as expectet also the symbol is not reversed.

you combinator computes: when green science pack is less than 5 --> output signal [0] with a value of 1
and your belt is set to: enabled when signal [0]= 1

so the belt will activate when you have less than 5 science packs in the chest

The comparison operators work correct for me, I suspect you have a logic or wiring issue. If you still think there is a bug, then upload your save-file and describe what behaviour you would expect as exact as possible.
