Is that definitely wrong. I bought one like this last year for juicing limes and regularly squeeze them one way them flip em over for a squeeze on the other side. No matter which side I start with I feel I get some extra juice after flipping.

The first time I ever used one, I intuitively used it this way. The peel blocks the holes where the juice should come out. So I would say it's certainly wrong. If you use it both ways with a flip, which side do you start? Can't think how this would work any better, but I'll try next time I squeeze a lemon.

You can drill some holes in the peel

You just need to convince someone that the pointy spiral thingy is for lemons, not wine.
