math behind rotation gate
why is the rotation gate defined in an exponential format?
You might just put it down to convenience. An equally valid definition would be
$$
R_Z(\theta)=\cos\frac{\theta}{2}I-i\sin\frac{\theta}{2}Z,

Why Qiskit doesn't invert hard coded unitary matrix?
So I have finally have the time to check up with what I wrote in the comment, and what I commented is indeed the case.
If I passed in the matrix $U = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 & 0\\ 0 &...
