The Latin alphabet does have historical developmental stroke directions, not by rules but by what's natural and possible using the historical Euro writing tool — a broad-cut reed or quill pen. In this sense the Japanese stroke order for Latin letters is wrong; you can't push a reed pen to write an ‘O’ that way.
