If it's good tape and you wrap it tight, you can go any direction you like, even top down like I always do, since no finishing tape = win

Each to their own I guess. Reasons for wrapping from the bottom of the bars explained:

Wrapping bar tape bottom-up vs top-down

No finishing tape doesn’t seem like much of a win.

yawn I've played knifey-spooney before, you know. Use a tape that has a stiffer or less elastic outer layer than the foam underneath, wrap it tight and you won't get edge curling.

Been going top down for 25+ years, reckon I could even wrap most plain foam tapes tight enough not to curl.
