    Why has this not been backported to 2020.3 but it has for 2020.2???
    What kind of long term support is that?

    Here's a possible solution:
    var ori = (screen.orientation || {}).type || screen.mozOrientation || screen.msOrientation;
    if (!ori)//safari doesn't support it, resort to window.orientation
    ori = window.orientation === 0 ? "portrait-primary" : window.orientation === 180 ? "portrait-secondary" : window.orientation === 90 ? "landscape-primary" : "landscape-secondary";
    csharpscreenorientation = ori === "portrait-primary" ? 0 : ori === "portrait-secondary" ? 1 : ori === "landscape-primary" ? 2 : 3;
