And why is it necessary to remap 0° to portrait, and 90° to landscape?
Since landscape and portrait mode are mirrored to the opposing angles
(180° and 270° respectively), you have all the freedom you need (ie.,
the opposite orientation sits "left" and "right" of your current
orientation).
So the only remaining issue is to set the *default* orientation that
your device wants to start with.
