Automatic angle to set in LrDevelopController.setValue("straightenAngle", angle)

Question

Hi, is there any way to call LrDevelopController.setValue("straightenAngle", angle)but to pass angle to be auto (just like to click the button in the UI of Lightroom Classic? I'm trying to automate batch processing of several photos of sports games and the angle is not always the same, and doing manually is a bit tedius.  Maybe with other class or controller? If there's an option in the UI should be an option to do it with programming. Thank you.

An alternative to consider: Transform panel / Upright modes.

These are very easy to batch apply using conventional LrC means, e.g. within default processing at import. And Upright knows to recalculate for each image in its own right, in my experience doing a reliable and efficient job. Sure, sometimes it may be 'led astray' by mis-analysing genuinely tilted items within the photo - but the same equally happens with the Auto button for (crop) straightening.
