Jérôme Duriez posted a new comment:
You can also realize that geom.normal is from i.id1 to i.id2 [1]
(whether i.id1 is b.id = 10 or 20 in a 10-20 contact being indeed
collider-dependent), and that contact forces are from i.id1 onto i.id2
[2]

This insures the given sign for the dot product, in accordance with the
repulsive (compression) or attractive (tension) nature of the force.
