Tool change retraction

After months of being annoyed at tool1 not primimg for the first time it was used after tool0 I found this thread and script and inserted it and now I get the priming done as expected, but it over extrudes by quite a bit every change making a big blob. Is this resolved by having a negative extra restart distance?

Apparently yes? I have a tool change retraction distance of 55mm. If I set the extra restart distance to -55mm then it all works as expected. I just don't understand why I guess.
