Why is this needed in the ROS2 version when it wasn't in ROS1?

Do we know if the ROS1 version of the sample app has the camera on the track at first launch?

Do we know if the ROS1 version of the sample app has the camera on the track at first launch? It doesn't launch actual camera. It's just name of the property in gazebo. It will just set the default launch view instead of user requiring to manually adjust in order to look it better. You can see that in attached image. (World->GUI->Property->Camera->Pose)

Its not needed. but It will set the default launch view instead of user requiring to manually adjust in order to look it better.

If you see default launch view of ROS1 hard track, you have to change gazebo view to TOP view in order to make track and car properly visible.

With this change user doesn't have to adjust it manually.

That makes sense. Would be good to explain that in the initial change in the future.
