Well, there is a way to beat it, but it isn't the way most people write "6":
start the writing motion for the numeral "6" from the inside curve, going out. I naturally did that way first and wondered what the heck you were talking about. Then I realized that it felt all too natural and further realized that I started inside out. When I tried to start at the top of the curvy numeral, yeah, my leg tried to go the other way.
Fascinating.
