I think the original picture is enough evidence that it could easily be misinterpreted, regardless of any other circumstances. It’s not immediately self-evident.
but that’s not intuitive. when a compass says that the bearing is east, you are facing east. here, the onlooker is actually facing west when looking at east.
if the street pole had a bunch of arrows sticking out towards the cardinal points, what you’re saying is obvious may truly have been obvious.
but in this arrangement, the question put forth is a fair one and does not deserve derision.

You’re saying it like it’s obvious, but it’s a fair question.
