I think that's taking a dim view of what machine vision should be capable of. If a picture is rotated 180 degrees, upside down text should be recognized as its flipped version, i.e., the word "6op" should be read as "dog" having been rotated. Similarly a machine should be able to tell if it's looking at the reflection of the sky in a lake. And disregarding entire scenes, any object upside down (upside down chair, upside down dog, upside down car, ...) is clearly recognizable as such to a human, and hence should be to a machine as well.
