I'm pretty sure all plaquette style devices are the same in this regard? The reverso just lacks the front loop that you can torque on to achieve the same "lowering" angle.

In all seriousness, always back up the brake strand when lowering in guide mode!

This isn't in guide/plaquette mode. What is this? This looks like you were setting up to try to drop somebody, then you clipped the brake strand through a locker to reduce the chances of the rope strands rubbing as you drop them.
