Yes that's true, the keyword argument name "inverse" is certainly something I don't feel sure about. It'd be nice if everyone interested could suggest names that make sense to them and what's their rationale behind them, so that we pick something that's as self explanatory as possible. My thinking was to indicate that it's the opposite scaling to the default option "None", so maybe something like "opposite" or "reversed" could be other choices. Otherwise, we can find something that directly describes the scaling and not its relationship to the default option.
