European style switches are off with the top half pressed in and on when the bottom half is pressed in (multiway switches excluded). This is a hill I'm willing to die on and I will be looking down on installers doing it otherwise.

Edit: By "European style" I mean this design: Picture

For this design "lever up" = on: Picture

I've always been in houses where there are multiple switches in different rooms existing for the same light for convenience, so I judge the on/off state of a switch by whether or not it's currently dark somewhere lol
