The documentation of mouse-avoidance-mode says:
Set cursor avoidance mode to MODE.
MODE should be one of the symbols `banish', `exile', `jump', `animate',
`cat-and-mouse', `proteus', or `none'.
If MODE is nil, toggle mouse avoidance between `none' and `banish'
modes.
So it's not a simple toggle. Interactively, it prompts you for the
avoidance mode; that is not what a simple toggle is expected to do.
There are some *-mode functions that are simple on/off toggles, but
that's not universally true.

I'm not sure. The ``reduction'' of the fringes sounds a lot like
different styles, so perhaps set-fringe-style or some such would be a
better name (assuiming that fringe-mode is deemed not a good idea).
