anyone know why the uniswapv3 example tries to find the next lower tick (w/ liquidity) as active tick rather than the next higher tick?

also, i'm not seeing the interface repo find the next tick - perhaps current tick is good enough?

not sure about the example, but during a swap the next initialized tick will be less than or equal to the current tick if the swap is zero for one (trading token0 for token1).

ah, i see what you mean.  i think they're just looking for an active tick and then iterating by the tick spacing to display the liquidity between ticks. 
 liquidity only really makes sense in ranges between ticks.

right, but it seems like any assumption on direction for next active tick gives a buy/sell bias to the price, which in this case is displayed on the liquidity chart. i know the current tick isn't necessarily representative of the liquidity used in the next swap, but seems like a more neutral choice
