That’s a dangerous assumption and flies in the face of logic (unless you’re suggesting that the Henge builders erected the stone at an angle :-) Assuming then that the stone was originally in the vertical it ‘has gone somewhere’ since then and presumably would have continued to do so.

Given the appalling wet weather last year, and the plonkers I’ve seen climbing both stones and standing on the top of them over the years, further movement was not just a possibility it was nigh on a certainty!
