View the string as a pointer. The forward end (the point) points at the
required rudder pedal to continue the turn or stop yaw.

It is impossible for the forward end to "point" at anything,
since it is fixed in place by tape. The string pivots
around its stationary forward end.

Any "pointing" is of course done by the free aft end
of the string, away from the pivotal point.

Same thing as the hands of a clock. The minute hand
points "right", not left, at five past twelve.

If you give left rudder you will slip to the right
and the string will point left.
