The iPhone 15 on StandBy mode should get AlwaysOnDisplay when horizontal

When the regular iPhone 15 is charging and is tilted horizontally, it enters the ‘StandBy’ mode. A neat feature that is active for a few seconds before the screen turns black. I know the AlwaysOnDisplay feature is not gonna work on the iPhone 15 and its 60hz screen. AlwaysOnDisplay-mode requires a screen that can clock down the refresh-rate to 1hz, which only the Pro models have. But when the regular 15 is charging and is tilted to display StandBy mode horizontally, having the feature disappear is not ok. I learned this only after spending money on a MagSafe cover, charger and stand. Not cool Apple, not cool.

There should be an option to have StandBy, horizontally, on a charging device, have the screen always on. Allow this to users with the regular iPhone 15 in a future update, dont tease us with the feature and have the screen turn off seconds later. The whole premise of the feature disappears.
