>Seriously? In what way would that be unclear? "Backward" as in "towards smaller numbers" and "forward" as in "towards higher numbers" - the common definition of both terms?

Thank you for making my point perfectly.

The partitions were 1: EFI; 2: root; 3: home; 4 swap.

After resizing the home partition, it needed to be moved forward (toward higher
numbers) to allow space for the root partition to grow.  However, the software
described this as moving the partition backward.
