1) Well for a Martian you surprise me, I thought you knew our planet better.
It is not a matter of belief but of scientific fact.
Indeed; the magnetic component of the earth is not entirely parallel to the ground (sof at the equator).
This means that there is a NORD pole along a vertical axis (perpendicular to the ground) and directed upwards.
In the southern hemisphere this North turns into South ...
So magnetically if you sleep with your head in the north, you don't change "anything" whether you are standing or lying down ... the reverse in the southern hemisphere.
2) I think Ka-lou mainly thought about the thermal level ... right?
A full west orientation with large windows with a good K is good for winter but summer it is a risk of overheating without adequate heat dissipation.
