Yes, scrolling moves the content. As if it’s being gripped by the bottom of the wheel I’m rotating with my finger from the top.
Imagine a toy monster truck on a sheet of paper. Push the wheels forward, page moves backward.
Inverse scrolling is like a high-heeled rubber shoe attached to the tip of my finger advancing the page. There’s some logic to it but that’s not what a wheel is like unless it’s an Apple mouse’s touch wheel. But they can’t be trusted to design a mouse: one had a circular cross-section, another charged from the bottom.
