Windows 8 and the mouse wheel

Why oh why to MS shoot themselves in the foot?
I am sure there is a practical reason for doing but for me it is unfathomable. Microsoft has seen fit to reverse the way the mouse wheel works in Modern UI apps.
I never really noticed this odd behaviour as I the only Modern app I use is solitair. But I have been using the VMware Horizon app lately and couldn't work out why scrolling with the mouse wheel was backwards to what you get on the desktop.
I then noticed that it was backwards in other apps I tried.
this makes using the Horizon App awkward to use so I have had to revert to using the desktop client rather than the App, not a big thing but really Microsoft why did you make that decision?
