Yes, I think so. My sectional is always north up, and it doesn't
bother me in the slightest when I fly south. But my GPS is track-up,
because that's the way it came from the factory. It seems perfectly
natural to me.

Of course, in the Cub I have never noticed much sudden redrawing

I even think there may be an advantage to having the sectional
oriented one way and the Garmin another way. It reminds me that the
sectional is real, and that the Garmin might be in error, the way it
was when it moved Hampton NH airport to the Andes. I have not fully
recovered from that particular betrayal.
