^^Conventional current makes sense if we take the current flow to be positive though; a hypothetical positron flow will follow the direction of conventional current. Electron flow will have to be by necessity in the opposite direction.

Besides we don't have to be like those of the past, not fixing mistakes just because they're widespread. People also thought the sun revolved around the Earth. Now no one teaches that anymore.
