Neostead got it same way. Reasoning behind it was, that you pull the gun to your shoulder on closing, resulting in "better" shouldering/stability just before the shot. Designers claimed, that other shotguns are the ones which works "backwards" as on closing, you basically pushing it away and reverse system makes more sense.

I can certainly see the reasoning, although NeoStead is pretty much unicorn and reverse pumping never quite caught-up.
