Code schmode.
GFCI outlets that have printing on them have the printing printed both
ways so that they can be read regardless of which way they are mounted.
So I think it is up to the preference of the installer or who-ever.
That said, the proper way to mount them is with the ground down.

We added an addition to the quarters at the ambulance I worked for, I
came in just as the electircian was finishing up and saw them all
ground up. I told him I didnt want to be "that guy" but they were
upside down. He explained the reason, said it was code too, but ive
never verified that, but the reason makes sense, so ground up ever
since for me

Same as the proper way to pronounce the word “often”.
(Rhymes with soften).
I am OK with being totally right and nobody agreeing with me.

Yeah, probably no box, just drywall for the photo.
But I would say the receptacle is upside down too.
