That intuition makes a lot of sense to me, especially if I picture the person's frame of reference.
Kind of reminds me (a layman) of winding numbers. I suppose there are topologically inspired variations of this problem that might be even more "paradoxical" (or perhaps just silly). If you moonwalk the second half, you undo your rotation? Or if you follow specially designed subterranean tunnels, you can end up doing 0 or negative rotations!
