Hm. I am not sure if your comment is sarcastic. So the following may be a waste.
But I’ll follow it. Is your thesis that video should not be moving full screen on mobile devices in casual usage, i.e. Without the user rotating their device?
To expand on this, should mobile device camera apps warn users to not shoot portrait video due to being ”unergonomical”?
My thesis is that the most natural way of viewing videos is with a longer axis in the horizontal than in the vertical. Users should rotate their device to watch videos.

Mobile phone camera apps shouldn't even understand the concept of shooting footage in a vertical direction.
The boat you are wishing for seems to have already sailed. Social apps are growing / have grown a generation that ejoys vertical video as a medium of its own. So whether vertical video is unnatural seems debatable either way at this point.
