The age old question

Not to be all "rito map flip where?", but I saw this GD post about it from a long time ago and I was just wondering if the purple team map flip was officially shelved or what...

For those who don't know, there is a proven higher win percentage for teams on the blue side, and that is why, in ranked games, the purple team always has a higher average mmr than the blue team in order to try and even it out, so Riot is aware that the camera angle for the purple team is an issue to a number of players, and I believe the community would be very grateful for the ability to do anything about it, not necessarily a map flip, but some sort of camera manipulation that just makes it easier to see.
