They are musically incorrect, from upward stems.
To be correct, their stems must be downward.

A bit harsh. NWC2 is inconsistent, but stem directions are often changed to avoid lyrics or to produce a better looking slur.

Thanks. I saw those topics.
In fact, I often see the beam like Pos:-1,1 when I run "Transpose Staff".
This isn't the first time! :)
