Photo series to reproduce the above mentioned hint

For reproduction see the attached photo series

If a photo is not correctly oriented (# 1, twisted), the first step is to correct the orientation (# 2).
The second step is cropping, which is typically set to "Current aspect ratio" for me. In order to get the largest possible area, I press "Largest possible area", but the cropping frame expands to the frame size (# 3). Only a small part of the frame format can be used, which I then have to adjust manually (# 4).

EXPECTED RESULT: Shouldn't the automatic adjustment of the cropping frame be limited to the usable image format (# 4)?

Windows 10 PRO, Version 20H2

The tool to crop the aspect ratio does not consider pixel content, this is not an bug. The rotation tool can automatically cut to the largest area. Then with the aspect ratio tool crop to the maximum area - done.

Thanks Maik, the rotation tool is much more powerful than I expected. My 
problem is now solved.
