Some people do say "outside in." I've heard it and it sounds weird. I think it just has to do with what we're used to hearing. Kind of like lacing your fingers. You can do it opposite of how you usually do, but it would feel wierd.

It is the same as anything we are used to hearing, like "knives & forks" instead of "forks & knives" or socks and shoes, the list goes on and on...
