When using a gear mate and mating a spur gear and a bevel gear with their faces at 90 deg, why do they both rotate the same direction?

Mating two bevel gears or two spur gears at 90 degrees result in the correct 'opposite' rotation of both gears. When mating a bevel and a spur at 90 degrees both rotate in the same direction.
