  Have you actually tried them? They do exactly the same thing: The viewing
area is always modified vertically, never horizontally. (If you wanted
automatic horizontal viewing area change, you would have to deal with
both 'right' and 'angle', with a less trivial formula.)
  I see this even more problematic.
