Why would anybody use North up???
Maybe because we spent over sixty years of our lives using those paper thingys called road maps. Easier to read the words and numbers on those maps because they were all oriented with north up.
Maybe because it is easy to know our compass direction based upon the geography and the sky.
Meanwhile, it would be nice to have a legend permanently embedded on the maps, especially a distance key. And it would be nice to include a physical map instead of purely political.
