A. I want to use & in every selector, as I think it makes code more clear
B. I want to be able to omit & whenever possible, as it's noisy to read and a hassle to type

What do you not understand about CSS? Not the things you find hard to remember, but what things about the language or decisions made by spec authors do you find baffling?

Note that "has correct orientation" can be checked by opening the image in pretty much any normal photo editor. If it looks good, it'll be fine. If it's rotated weirdly, you might have a problem and need to fix it in a decent image editor.
