Larry, yes, but a ball head requires tightening.
Think of a flash bracket: it doesn't. A flip is much easier and quicker.
And then, if you are completely leveled (shooting up or down), you'd still
need some tilt from the head but in the orthogonal direction (forward
rocking as opposed to flipping sideway ). (And you can set that for the
condition and keep it constant. )

I'd expect it would be useful to sport photographers, for those sports
where you'd want both portrait and landscape shots, and switch between the
two. But maybe those people use two cameras each on a separate monopod?
Because it is quick and easy with a ball head, all of the good ones have a
special notch that allows you to tip the camera exactly 90
degrees. Anything that only does 90 degrees would cost about as much.
