Binary exists in both
big-endianLSb orlittle-endianMSb. In other words, both directions can be valid.As explained below: Endianness is specifically the order of bytes. I was under the impression that it also implied a specific order of bits but anyways, the correct terms for this discussion is Least/Most Significant bit order.
This is a single byte, so it’s represented the same in big-endian vs little-endian. Endianness defines the order of bytes, not individual bits
