Thanks!
I think it depends on where you are riding, but for anywhere with big hills or technical climbs I think We Are One has the right idea optimizing chainline around the 8x biggest cogs which see the most torque.
Good point re. Cog size. Longer stays are less brutal in the chain too. Lots of 2x setups too pre-Boost. Legacy-142 / 49 is certainly no worse than Boost-148 / 52, which most folks do seem fine with, but I used to space my chainring over with my first 1x setup (the miracle of 4x bolt 104).
