> They use Google Maps' default "map turns around you" mode

Physical maps that do this are infuriating. For example the "you are here" maps on the street and the tube/subway exit maps inside stations in central London. So you get off the train and look at the station exit map with a goal of finding -- say -- the eastern-most exit if that is your direction of travel, but have to mentally rotate the map to according to the compass pointer first.
