Default Sliding patio door inside or outside?

Therefore, I would guess the slider on the inside is the
standard convention.


Pella puts them on the outside. The theory being, if the wind is blowing
against the door, the pressure help seal the door to keep air out as opposed
to pushing it away from the gasket. Mine has been in for about 10+ years
now and I like it a lot.


Pella is outside but the screen lets in bugs to the closed section and
bugs can come in because you need to open the screen to close the
slider
