Nothing wrong with Z=up. One of those things that at first glance looks insane, then you explain it to people, and it’s actually quite sensible.

These kinds of diagrams always fail to make a distinction between camera space and world space, and it makes my blood boil. Z-up makes waaaay more sense in world space, and Y-up makes sense in camera space or screen space.
