Below starts up earlier than above... the strength of putting the pin above or below the middle finger completely depends on your PAP coordinates.

For me that is a really weak layout, but for someone with a smaller track diameter and shorter horizontal PAP length it could be quite strong.

With a very high track, pin-over-middle is going to be pushing 6" pin-to-PAP.  That's a very weak layout, you'll get a lot of length with it.  Pin under middle will be slightly earlier, but it won't be by much.
