“Unable”? How did this manifest?!

There are an infinite number of untested cases though. Figuring out the important ones is the hard part, otherwise they likely would have been identified and fixed in development.

Would it invert North and South after crossing the line? No, that’s the story of the Soviet bomber that took off the wrong way from the airstrip in a secret night mission, and ended up 180° in Iran. Fortunately the two iranian jetfighters supposed to down it, ended up chasing each other. Real world is hilarious. https://youtu.be/i-bdJF6TUFs
