I don't understand which one should be which. I personally don't see how fold 
left is inwards (or outwards), and ditto for fold right. While aliases for 
people used to Fusion are provided, it is planned to have fold_right and 
fold_left, which everyone in the FP community can understand out of the box.

See [1] for the resolution regarding foldl/foldr.
