"North" is better correlated with the direction of travel that our planet/solar system is moving within[0]

Given the context in our movement compared to the milky way, maybe it's better to have East/West for top/bottom, with the poles on each edge of the map ;) [1]

Or better yet, let's make the top of the map Galactic North, instead of Celestial North :P
