"Cancel"/"No" should be on the left (go back) and "OK"/"Yes" on the right (proceed).

(There may be guidelines that do the opposite and I guess RTL locales may reverse it).

Deliberately ignoring HMI guidelines and switching button placement is irritating and does not remove the muscle-memory (?) problem. Doing it randomly is nuts and leads to mistakes that are IMO not the users fault.

It you want to interrupt a sequence, there are kinder ways of doing it like double confirmation.
