Help nit, ATTRIB's /L?

Is this backwards or am I misinterpreting it? Without /L it shows the attributes of the link itself. With /L it shows the attributes of the target.

ATTRIB - Change or view file and directory attributes
/LSet or display the attributes of the symbolic link versus the target of the symbolic link

Code:
v:\> d /a:-d sy*
2023-06-29  12:02     <SYMLINK>    symlink.btm [v:\nistcheck.btm]
2023-06-29  12:07     <SYMLINK>    symlink2.btm [v:\a b c\nistcheck.btm]

v:\> attrib sy*
___A____L________  V:\symlink.btm
___A____L________  V:\symlink2.btm

v:\> attrib /L sy*
___A_____________  v:\nistcheck.btm
___A_____________  v:\a b c\nistcheck.btm
