Rotate on Import, rarely works if at all. Why?

I've noticed that the rotate on import really does not work at all, I think
it worked once, and not sure if I was using Photo Galley or Live Photo
gallery then.

What does it need to actually rotate automatically on import, I've tested
with obviously needs rotating images , such as people in full body profile,
animals, heads, objects, houses etc but it doesn't do it anymore (The option
is still enabled before asking) In fact I remember it once or twice
annoyingly rotating images that didn't need it.

The Auto-Rotate option in a camera is usually
controlled by the position (orientation) of the
camera when the picture is taken...not the
graphic content of the picture.

Maybe the following links will offer some ideas:

Why doesn't the Photo Gallery
automatically rotate all of my photos?

Thanks, not really a solution, as I remember it working a few times
automatically, oh well.

Thanks again
