180 degree rotation has been supported on the phone for as long as I can remember.

I for one, in many thousands of hours of usage, have never accidentally used the wrong volume button on an iPad or iPhone. I'm pretty sure I would have if the buttons changed function based on orientation.

Quite apart from anything else, with the screen off how would you know which orientation the screen was in !
