When assessing English Wikipedia in in-cognito mode (to simulate that it's the first time I access VE), a pulsing blue dot over the link tool allows to access a popup. There the illustration shown uses elements with an RTL layout (note the Wikipedia sidebar on the right):
Inspecting the LTR and RTL versions of the images, it seems they are swapped currently.

Just curious, is the RTL version actually used anywhere? I ran a Catfish search and didn't see it in any of the files, although the LTR version is used in VisualEditor/modules/ve-mw/ui/styles/tools/ve.ui.MWLinkInspectorTool.css
I think CSS Janus is in charge of delivering the correct version depending on the language direction. You can check Hebrew Wikipedia to see how the image is mirrored with respect to the one in the description:
Funny, they have been swapped ever since we added them in 2015… https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/VisualEditor/+/238380
Thanks for the patch!
