"Invert" is the same as creating a negative from a positive. That produces the opposite colour in the spectrum, whereas complementary colours are more to do with what the eye finds pleasing, and that is more to do with the primary colours of pigments (RYB) than the primary colours of light (RGB).
Why are colors inverted?
There's a reason why, historically, colour inversion has been used. It's because the value of any pixel is simply negated (which turns dark pixels light, and light pixels dark, as well as altering the colour). ... Doing this allows adjustment of the brightness/lightness whilst preserving the hue (the actual colour).
