Default Advanced avionics artificial horizon question

Ok so pardon my vocabulary on asking the question, so there might be some confusion.

OK

So in conventional/analog attitude/artificial horizons the bank angle pointer moves with the airplane and the angle ticks are level with the horizon. But in the Proline/Honeywell it’s all swapped.

When I first flew a jet and saw the pointer stay level with the horizon it just made my brain go bizerk.

What’s the reasoning behind this?
