The Design is Very Human

I'd rather have an app with unnecessary options that nobody will ever use than one where some UX expert somewhere has decided the exact way I have to interact with the program.

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.

You will snooze for 9 minutes and you will like it.

There was a point in time where first person video games couldn't make their minds up and so games came with the option to have the y-axis inverted. Moving the mouse up would make the PC look down and vice versa.

I have to switch the y axis in every 3rd person game now because of super Mario sunshine.

This is an affront to nature

Looking at you Apple who has this option on by default.

This is actually pretty nice for touchpad. It's atrocious for scrollwheel though.
