What is the reason that absolute value is always written as a positive?

• Absolute value is talking about numbers so it must be positive.

• Absolute value does not always have to be positive.

• Absolute value is like a clock it has only positive numbers.

• Absolute value is talking about distance, distance is always measured by positive numbers.
