#Vortex Accepts Rotated Shapes But Not Train Stations

FYI I can't find the "pinned post", nor is there anything under the tag "READ ME FIRST", so I may be breaking a guideline. Sorry in advance.

So I noticed in the playthrough that the Vortex accepts shapes, even if they are rotates compared to each other. I have had no problem with this (as seen in the image).
However, when I was building an outpost for the 2nd milestone shape, the train loader will not accept shapes that are rotates compared to one another. Instead it will just restart the progress on the "package".
I don't have video of this but I hope my explanation is enough.

I think it would make sense for the train stations to be changed so that they accept rotated shapes, based on the fact that the vortex does.

To add what a community manager on Steam told me:
This is intended as when trains are not going to the vortex, but to other stations, a rotated shape actually makes a difference.
You would want the shape to come out of the train in the same orientation you put it in.
So the train needs to treat them as distinct shapes.
It's just not clarified in the game what's going on.
It's just flickering, as it deletes 10 items when it sees a new shape to "clean itself".
