2023 and /sci/ still doesn't have an argument against this.

Let's think about it from what is easily seen:
The full moon rises roughly with sunset? right?
The it rises later and later so that it rises just before the sunrise when it's crescent, and you can see it rising from the east early in the morning.
The new moon roughly follows the sun as today, and it will remain in the late evening and it begins to increase so it moves east on the sky.
So, we could see the shadow cross from the eastward side, which will be up if the eclipse happens after midnight, and bottom when it happens before midnight in your particular location.
Does it clear things up?
