This is primarily due to the fact that the "two's" advance, while the "one's" retreat. And, as such, the "two's" move in the reverse direction of the "one's".

 

There is only one exception to the "rule" that the "one's" retreat, and it is the first downward block of Long Form One. There are a few reasons why Long Form One advances at this point in the form. For further information as is relates to this subject, refer to The Official EPAKS Guide to Long Form One: the Analysis of Long Form One section and the Frequently Asked Questions section.
