Exactly, Bruce!  I just posted this about polarization on 160:

I wondered about the inverted-L. My guess is that it had a poor ground
system.

There are always exceptions.

A few years ago there was someone that had a inverted V that  worked well
for DX.
 It was found that it was feed with open wire feeders that acted as a
vertical antenna  with top loading.

If  your antenna works well be happy.   Ham radio is a great hobby.
