To me (and I used to navigate planes for a living so I'm a bit biased)
the only orientation that really makes sense is Heading up -
especially if there is a lot of crosswind. I want the map to mirror
what is outside the cockpit, and with track up and a crosswind, it's
possible for a feature in the distance (mountain, for example) to be
on one side of the map centerline, but on the other side of the
canopy, due to the glider's crab angle.


"Heading Up" does not match what you see out the cockpit with crosswind.
That is why ILEC SN10 does "nose up", matching your view...

Hope that's clear !
