nope.

the orientation tag dates back to when digital cameras became popular,
roughly 20 years ago, *long* before iphone was even an idea, let alone
an actual product.

nobody wants to go through thousands of photos and manually rotate the
ones that are in portrait or upside-down orientation.

what's faulty is deliberately ignoring the tag when displaying the
image.
