Im unfamiliar with this as well. If you are allocating memory for a stack, why does it matter which direction it populates data? Is this just a convention?
I ask deepseek: Downward-growing stacks** are more common in many architectures (e.g., x86, ARM). This convention originated from early computer architectures and has been carried forward for consistency.
Funny, I can’t remember, , because I did a lot of assembler back in my youth.
What about stacks grows to higher addresses?

Ah thank you so its just a convention.
