Comment (by deinst):

 I think that it is more complicated than that.

 I know next to nothing about the Sage graphics system, please feel free to
 clarify any blatant falsehoods.

 The MatrixPlot object is a GraphicsPrimitive and is responsible for
 drawing the image.  The axes are drawn by the containing Graphics object
 which contains the MatrixPlot.  There may be a member of Graphics that
 allows us to relabel the axes that we could call in `matrix_plot`, but I
 do not know what it would be.

 The more I look at this, I think that the best short term solution would
 be to back out #18463 and put an `abs` in `_limit_output_aspect_ratio`.
 This is possibly wrong in terms of composed plots, but things would work
 correctly for the use cases that we have now.  It would not be incorrect
 in the case that ymax>ymin, just somewhat wasteful.

 Does there exist high level documentation of the Graphics subsytem
 somewhere?  Something which describes how sums of plots are supposed to
 work, how to draw different axes for different plots in a single Graphics
 object would be nice.
