What everybody seems to be missing here, and alluding to the station wagon metaphor, is that, even if you visualize yourself facing the past with your back turned on the future, you are still moving forward into the future backwards; you are still leaving the past behind you, even though you are facing it.
If the Aymara just see themselves turned around, but still moving forward into the future and leaving the past behind, then there's really no difference.
