Ask your self this question 'If you were shooting ACE's out side and X7's indoors what would you change?' If the nocks were about the same thickness you would drop the arrow rest and line up the arrow with the center of the button. Compound archers mostly don't use a button so do not have a a visible reference for arrow height. I shoot off fingers so my compound is fitted with a mag flipper rest and button.
In that case, I would agree that what you say makes sense...

As I said I am just a relatively green recurve archer. Maybe I am fairly unusual. I have been shooting for 15-18 months, and have changed very little. Still on the sam eriser, linbs, sight, stabiliser... The one thing I have changed this year was the move to ACE arrow.
