    It is not about the wording, rather the having the option? No one would call that direction natural.

      Actually “natural” gets a pass from me. It doesn’t feel right just because we got used to the opposite.

      Imagine a paper scroll on rolls. If you slide the top of the roll upwards - the paper goes up, and you can see more bottom content. The exact opposite happens when you scroll the mouse wheel with default config.
