Wrong channel info shown/copied when opening channel?

Hi. I'm in 6565, and confused. I completed the triangle as node C and immediately opened the channel. Just copy/pasting peer-id and amount of sat. Now we had some confusion and it turned out I opened  a channel to B instead of A. 
Of course human error on my side isn't impossible, but looks very unlikely to me. Also it seems unlikely that after 6000 swaps suddenly the peers get swapped - unless there were recent changes on the site maybe?

I double checked the code and everything is in order. My theory is that you got a message from the system that you need to peer with B, so they can open to you because you're on TOR and B is on clearnet. You probably quickly copied out the pubkey which was meant for peering, not channel opening. Maybe I will revisit the messaging to make it somehow look very different from the regular channel opening message.
