In Java3D with an identity projection matrix you should have
x increasing to the right, y increasing upward and z increasing
out of the screen (toward the viewer). This is consistent with
your directions, with a 90 degree rotation in the matrix.

You are right, swapping coordinates will not change the
triangulation.
I cannot see any error in what you are doing, but often face
similar mysteries in my own work. All you can do is experiment
with different permutations and print out a lot of numbers,
trying to understand the relation with the picture, until you
solve it.
Good luck,
Bill
