In a #crypticClue, if a direct reversal of the answer appears (as opposed to a definition for it), would you rather see a reversal indicator or an anagram indicator? E.g:

Quickly swap animal feet (4)
Animal feet bring back swap (4)

(If it’s a synonym it obviously has to be a reversal indicator, since indirect anagrams are a no-no):
Trade back animal feet (4)
