Default Pilot jets

I was replying to a post regarding carb problems and a guy put a link to a mikuni site. I went and had a look see....excellent info but when it gets to the pilot jet/circuit they state turning the pilot jet out richens the pilot circuit mix not the other way round which is what I thought.

I figure those guys have it right and I have it wrong. Soooo is it turn in to lean the mix and turn out to richen or vice versa......anybody?
